Second Design of my Double Page Spread - First Draft

Although I already have a first draft of a double page spread, I also did this design. I am happier with the result of this double page spread rather than my first double page spread, though there are still improvements to be made, such as with the empty space in the corner. I am also wondering about the number of images, and whether it's too many, as well as the typeface of 'Molly Booker', and the box (pink) it stands against.

Construction of my First Design - Double Page Spread (1st Draft)

First Design Double Page - First Draft

This is my double page spread first draft. I definitely need to make improvements to this, as I am unhappy with the results. This layout design (as seen from my flatplans) needs to be reconsidered in my opinion, as I think the text looks messy, and in particular, I do not like the way the photo stretches. Also, there seems a sense of emptiness, and the overall look of these pages does not fit to my genre of magazine. 

Construction of my Contents Page in InDesign (First Draft)

First Draft of my Contents Page

This is my first draft of my contents page. I like this page as I like the use of colours and images. There are definite improvements to be made, such a clearer reading of the articles. However, I really like the image of article 13, and the way that some of the empty space I had before has been filled with a mixture of images.
