Continued Magazine Covers

I continued to experiment with designing magazine covers as I thought my previous ones were lacking colour and Imagery. I like this more than my previous ones because of the colour and type faces used. That being said I'm still unsure of which one to use for my final cover design. 

Contents page layout designs

These are a couple of experimental contents page layouts, I like the theme that I have been using which is minimal. Although when using that it is hard to create a substantial piece of work. If I was to do this again I would spend more time laying out the base of the work and focus on the design of the work rather than keeping it minimal.

Magazine Covers

These are a couple of the magazine covers that I ended up creating for my magazine, I decided to stick with a simple colour scheme and to keep it minimal rather than clutter the whole page. I'm going to continue experimenting with more magazine covers but for the others I think I'll take a different approach and use colour and different photos.

Masthead Designs

These are a couple of masthead designs that I did. I wanted to go with the 'Less is more' approach to this by keeping the colours simple along with the design itself. I wanted to experiment with the name of the brief so I used 'NVL' standing for 'New Visual Language'. I'm happy with the end designs of my mastheads, I think they're clear and are presented well.
