In the Magazine Reboot project, hierarchy and grids were the main focus. The placement and sizing of the text establish a hierarchy across the magazine spread. To avoid making an overly busy layout on the second page, simple hand-designed illustrations were incorporated rather than using images. For the left page design, a bold typeface was used to catch the viewers’ attention along with a trash pile image to support the article. The body text is small and simple, and a bold typeface was used for the title and subheadings to establish a hierarchy within the text. Experimentation with a few different layouts and grids helped the placement images and text to be pleasing and effective. Different colors of text and illustrations were explored to make the magazine visually appealing. During the design process, the entirety of the magazine layout was considered to make a spread that is viewed as a unified whole, while also having successful individual elements.
