This document compares different magazine front page layout designs. It analyzes a layout with a mid-shot image and space for text, noting that it allows the image to be the main focus while still leaving room to read text. It also examines a full-page image design, stating this puts more emphasis on the model as the main attraction. Both layouts are said to draw inspiration from magazines the author has previously researched.

I like this front page as it has the main focus of the model and the im-
age, but still leaves space to write text and the text still stands out as it
is not covered by the image so It can still be read by the reader. This
frontpage is similar to VIBE which is one of the magazines I re-
searched.

I like this frontpage as the image is the main focus of the cover. It covers the
whole page and is good if you want the model to be the main focus. This maga-
zine is similar to NME which I have researched.
