The document discusses the conventions used in magazine design, including features like a front cover with images and a masthead to identify the publication, as well as coverlines and puffs. A contents page typically includes some images and lists the page numbers for different sections. A double page spread ordinarily contains an interview to promote an artist or album, along with some pictures to break up blocks of text. The author notes their own magazine design follows conventions by maintaining consistency in style, colors and images across the front cover, contents page, and double page spread to link the sections together and appeal to the target audience.
