This document analyzes the design elements of four mixed genre magazine covers. It discusses the graphology, typography, color palettes, and modes of address used for each cover. The graphology includes placement of images and text. Typography involves use of different fonts, sizes, and colors. Color palettes provide clues to the intended audience. Modes of address are direct if images look straight ahead. Design elements like these are used purposefully to attract audiences.
