Type and grid

In visual language with Lorenzo we looked at type and grid, and were taught how to work out the grid lying beneath a magazine or newspaper layout. 

We were set a task to take an existing magazine or newspaper spread that consists of both type and image, and redesign the layout.

 I began by drafting six initial ideas.

I then drafted my favourite design in more detail, also specifying different fonts used, point size of the type, colour and size of images.

To be honest page layout was never something I thought I would enjoy within graphic design, but I have a real taste for it now and cant wait to learn more on the subject and learn how to use the correct software to make it a professional, finished image.
