2. The spread follows the house style of Q very close, a
contrasting white and red. The photo of Gaga is greyscale
so that it fits in the with house style. The stylised font of ‘lady’ and
‘gaga’ contrasts. On one hand
you have the italicised lady and
the very bold gaga.

symbol of Q as their house style is often red
on white. It is a staple of Q spreads to have a
large letter indicating who they are
interviewing.
