1. House Styles

2. This particular house style is the style that I find most appealing and eye
catching and will be basing my own music magazine around. NME magazine
uses bold block text throughout most of its issues the look is often plain but
very effective and clear its contents pages normally follow the same colour
scheme as the front cover.
