I have contacted Stylist magazine to ask them about the paper stocks that they use for their free magazine hand outs. I really like the stock used and this would be perfect for my design context book.
I was looking through the magazine and there are certain layouts within it that could work quite well with how I want to display my chapter that is called 'The world of type and image'
I could have little mini examples of different pieces of type and image in different contexts with a brief explanation below it.
The dimensions of the stylist magazine are w:23cm/h:29.5
Layouts within the magazine, I am going to use this an inspiration throughout my publication.
Introduction to magazine, editor writes a little opening piece to introduce the magazine and the contents, i could bring this into my design context book.

Creative Review
Foiling has been added to the logo of creative review here, adding foiling really enhances a design in my personal opinion and I would like to try doing this for my design context publication.

Quote from Marian Bantjes that I found within one of the Eye Magazines.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteI realize you wrote this post a while ago, but I was curious if you ever found out what paper stock Stylist Magazine uses. I would be interested in knowing the stock size if you remember it.
Thanks!
