colours are shown through both the
colours of the writing and the colours in
the images used. This brings attention to

atmosphere.

at the top makes it stand out, as well as being
the first thing that people will read when
turning to this page. It reminds the readers
what magazine they are reading.

the articles featured in each subtitle are
in chronological order so it is easier to
