Successful Layout Design

These images above are good examples of double page spread. They are from Eye magazine. The layout’s in Eye magazine are quite organised and structured and combine’s negative space with type and images well. This combination of the negative space and an organised layout doesn’t make the magazine feel crowded. I particularly like the bottom left double page spread shown above. It is from issue 29 no13. The images and text are all positioned evenly across the pages and I like the way the title of the article is spread across the two pages like a footer instead of a conventional header. The article doesn’t feel over crowded and the arrangement is easy to follow.
