Designing a magazine is no simple task. In this free course, you'll discover ten fantastic magazine design tips to breathe life into your next print design:
1. Don’t be shy with your cover designs-get inspired by magazine cover ideas that use bold, punchy typography and photos to grab attention and sell the magazine to a casual browser.
2. Use a single pop of color-this is a stylish, subtle way of drawing attention and looks great for sports and tech magazines.
3. Spend time perfecting your contents page-as the gateway to the rest of your magazine, make sure to give the contents your full attention.
4. Make your title unique with custom illustrations-whether vector or hand-drawn, illustrated graphics can stand out in a sea of photographic magazines.
5. Bring digital style to print with infographics-a simple, effective way aesthetically pleasing magazines handle breaking up text-heavy articles.
6. Choose minimal layout styles for fashion and lifestyle titles-simple styles help trendy subject matter shine through great magazine spread design.
7. Choose typography appropriately-the right typeface can give particular personality to your magazine.
8. Make photos the main focus-beautiful photography should take up at least two-thirds of your magazine; be sure to print it on gloss-coated paper to make the most of stunning pictures.
9. Create a style theme and stick to it-apply consistent elements, such as color, shape and typography, throughout your whole magazine, to make it look super-professional.
10. Think in spreads, not pages-design your magazine in two-page doses and allow content to spread across the spine, to create an immersive design.
