Double Page Spread: This double page spreads feature article photograph is a posed image, which takes up a page and 1/3. It is a mid-shot picture of a woman who looks vintage and serious and she is in a field. The colour scheme is very neutral with browns, blacks, white and very pale yellows which gives a chill, laidback vibe. However, it is somewhat unconventional as there is some negative space to the left of the image, which fits with the theme/feel of the magazine as its demographic is young, somewhat careless people and the almost random negative space gives it a careless vibe.
The masthead for this double page spread is in all lowercase, which is again unconventional so this could also tell us that maybe this artist is careless and wants to subtly stand out as the double page spread doesn’t have lairy, bright colours like the front cover and contents page.
There is also no drop cap which helps with not making it stand out too much. Another unconventional feature of this double page spread is that the stand first is on the other page and covers a small section the feature article photograph. This fits with the house-style as it continues with the arty, modern and purposely careless theme.
It also includes a by-line, which is at the top of the article instead of at the bottom; where it usually is, again making it unconventional.
