Assignment & brand
Use supplied copy and photography to develop a magazine layout in the FIU entry project.
Insight & approach
The design challenge is hierarchy: a clear entry point, readable body text and images that give the feature its pace. This describes the visible layout rather than a documented research finding.
Concept & execution
The original first two pages are shown. Headline scale, columns and photography establish a consistent editorial rhythm. A later page retains unfinished subhead placeholders and remains in the private source record.
Development / The thinking in motion
The exercise supplied the story and photography, leaving the layout to establish a clear reading order.
The brief calls for master-page guides, automatic page numbers, prepared images and consistent body type. The retained first two pages apply large headlines, columns and photographic scale to the Corvette-restoration feature.
