Music magazines follow common conventions in their design to be recognizable and familiar to readers. The front covers typically feature a large central image, place the magazine name in the top left corner, include surrounding or overlaying text, and follow a grid layout. Contents pages usually list articles in columns, include the magazine name and date at the top, and sometimes feature a related image. Double page spreads consist of around 300-400 words, a large central image, changes in text size and color, with headlines, stand firsts, and columned text below large singular images, usually of an artist's face or full band.
