Over all the design magazines have very eye catching and bold identities. They all use type and image. For my magazine I would like it to be sleek, elegant and simple.

As more can be less I am going to only use type on the cover. The white space in itself will help the magazine stand out on the shelf against the mix of colours use on other magazines.
