2. Men’s Health Magazine
At first glance we can clearly see the mast head, due to the
text size and how the red color stands out against the
white background.
The main image also covers part of the masthead but
that is one of the unique codes and conventions that are
common in this magazine.
The headlines all use a direct tone, engaging the audience
with lines like “You can do it!”
The yellow accenting adds color to the magazine without
overpowering it.
The main feature shows Kumail Nanjiani, who recently
went through an amazing body transformation and is also
starring in a Marvel movie.
This appeals to several audience categories, from people
looking to learn his transformation secrets as well as
Marvel fans.
3. Men’s Health Magazine
The same pattern
is seen in Men’s
Health magazines
throughout the
world and
following the same
design elements
have given it a
clear identity as
well.
4. Men’s Fitness
Very similar to the Men’s Health
magazine, Men’s Fitness also
carries similar design codes,
which can be said to fall under
the umbrella of fitness
magazines.
Bright colors against the white
background make the text stand
out, the main image covers a part
of the mast head as well.
5. Muscle & Fitness Magazine
By now we can see the similar
codes and conventions shared
between fitness magazines.
The most common feature to
notice is that the main image
covers a part of the mast
head.
Usually, 4 main colors are used
for the headlines, with a great
presence of yellow, red, black
and white.
