Magazine draft layout ideas

Draft one
The example to the left was our first draft idea, the layout is simple and would attract our target audience however there were some missing semiotics that i wanted to include, this idea would be similar to our final draft but some of the breakout boxes might be positioned in different places.

Draft two
This was our second example, the format was not suited our target audience however the written codes and columns attracted me as it would suit the target audience more.

Final design draft
This is the design we decided to go for because it Incorporated the first design as it is simple however we took the written codes from the second design above these were only drafts however the one shown to the right is close to our final as we believe it is perfect for our target audience.
