MAGAZINE HOUSE STYLE
In my media studies class I learnt that house style
is nearly used by every magazine in the market
today to give each magazine a specific look and
layout so that it gets easier for people to recognize
it. The main three important things are:
1. Typography
2. Colour palette
3. Layout
The typography plays a major role in giving our magazine a unique look
and identity thus I would prefer not to restrict the typography of my
magazine to a specific font. Having different fonts for different elements
will be more appealing hence I’ll be using a variety of font styles (Serif,
Sans Serif, Script, Typewriter etc.).
These are the various font
styles that I used for my
magazine’s masthead, which I
downloaded from the website
known as Defont.
I will finalize the font for my
masthead based on my cover
image.
I’m going to keep my colour palette light and simple to
make my magazine look more elegant and outstanding.
This colour palette will give my magazine a flirty and
feminine look.
There are three layout shapes of text – C, U and H. I’m
planning on choosing the one which compliments my cover
image. Below are some examples of how I would want my
magazine cover to be like.
