I chose this Q magazine contents page as i think that the layout is interesting. The text 'Q contents' stands bold at the top of the page, so that it is recognisable that the page is the contents page. I like how the additional smaller pictures are tilted, it makes the page look more filled up. The picture of Matt Bellamy is also interesting as it is bigger than the list of contents, showing that he is the most important article in the magazine. I also like how the pictures and photography link to the contents of the magazine. For example the smaller picture of the man splashing water represents the article on page 88. The colours on the page are also interesting as they link to the house colours of Q magazine. The colours white, black and red make the page look neat and organised.
