'Kerrang' Music Magazine - Second Front Page, Contents Page and Double Page Spread Comparison


In this second comparison of an issue out of the 'Kerrang' music magazine the house style is maintained throughout the front cover, the contents page and the double page spread through the use of maintaining the colour scheme which is red, yellow, black and white. 

Furthermore, the strongest connection between the contents page and the double page spread is the use of the same image of the 'Of Mice & Men' band. A smaller image of this with the page number which informs the reader as to where the double page spread article in the magazine is, is in the left hand corner of the contents page which is highlighted by a green rectangle. As you can see a much bigger version of this shown on the double page spread. 

The main design element that is used that links the contents page and the double page spread is the use of a sticker in the right hand corner of the contents page and the left hand corner of the double page spread. Both of these are black half circles, with white writing on it with red rectangles and the same fonts are used on both of these design elements.

Lastly, the fonts that are used across the front cover, contents page and double page spread are the same in most cases. Again this is to help maintain the house style which is very important to help the reader gain familiarity with this particular music magazine.
