This page layout keeps the design simple with large text and images to avoid overwhelming the reader with too much information. The contents title is on the left to draw the eye, and the main story image is on the right as that is the typical direction of reading. This placement of text and images is intended to guide the reader's eye across the page and encourage them to read further into the magazine.
