This is a one page spread that I found in Rolling Stone magazine. It is a informational piece about the bassist Flea from the Red Hot Chile Peppers. I will have to say that I was originally drawn to the article because of the musician, but looking closer I really enjoyed the type treatment especially with the word wrap. There are two typefaces in this article but main type is a quite readable serif. Some might say that there is too much packed into this single page, but I have become accustomed to seeing this in Rolling Stone and I don't really mind it.

This is a AGI Congress and exhibit poster done by Staff Geissbuhler who studied at the Basil School of design. I found this image in the book Graphic Design Referenced by Bryony Gomez-Palacio and Armin Vit. This was chosen by the authors to represent some of Geissbuhler's better works. I found the composition interesting because of its positive and negative spacing. The big bold sans serif type, with the image of the chariot racer and horses makes it intriguing to me. This was designed in 2005.

This is a Swiss inspired design from an art show brochure. I have always enjoyed the simplicity of Swiss design. The sans serif type which was popular during that era is prominently displayed flush left.

This was an article that I found in Women's Health magazine. It talks about how popular women in society are going vegan. The type is mixed between a serif and sans serif typeface. The title page has a large V on it in yellow. Usually yellow wouldn't be a first choice in color because of its contrast, but with the drop shadow it works quite well. The opposite page carries a four column recipe for butternut squash. It is the imagery that really pulled me into the article.
