GARAGE Magazine - Inspiration

GARAGE Magazine is a great example of the simplistic, minimalistic magazine cover style, proving its conventionalism and popularity. I have used this brand and style of magazine cover for my own magazine, whilst putting my own spin on the minimalistic style.

What is a Lifestyle Magazine?

Image
  For my Media NEA project, I will be creating a Lifestyle Magazine. The concept of a lifestyle magazine is primarily used in reference to the magazine’s tone. They are often light-hearted, entertaining, and something for audiences to read, whilst still providing information on certain topics. A Lifestyle Magazine focuses on the basic needs and interests of people, and is centred around 'lifestyle', such as sports, health, homes, beauty, leisure, fashion, culture and travel etc.  They are sold all over the world and can cater to a range of demographics, including men, women, teenagers, and adults, for example. Popular lifestyle magazines include Vogue, a primarily female-audience magazine that focuses on fashion, beauty, culture, living, and runway; and GQ, a men’s magazine for all things fashion, style, culture, and much more.

Magazine Contents Page Mock-Ups

Image
  My magazine contents pages will continue the same trend as my magazine covers in order to create a consistent and recognisable style and brand. I will be using the same colour scheme and background patterns for each cover and respective contents page, so that audiences can easily tell that the two pieces of media are connected. I will also be using the same masthead/logo and the same fonts.  The two contents pages will both have a very similar layout in order to create consistency, such as the main image being on the left, the masthead and edition being on the top right, and the contents being in two columns with a secondary image and an editors note in the same place, etc. There will be slight differences, of course, such as the secondary image shape, the number of pages in each genre heading, and whether there is a coverline to go with the cover star name.
