Blogpost #8 First thoughts on house style

 

A magazines house style is some of the basic conventions that a magazine follows with all of it's covers. This can include the masthead, Font, colors, picture proportions/placements, location of the bar code and date etc.
Each magazine having a house style isn't a thing because a house style is a key part of my magazine and is very important both the writer and the reader, this is because it can keep the continuity throughout the magazine. 
This can help the reader not to get confused on the genre or the brand of the magazine they're reading if it is all kept in the same house style. House style will include font, color scheme and general layout of the magazine.
A house style is a standard that magazine publishers or designers follow. Most companies use house styles to promote their brand.
The house style gives a very diverse look for all different magazine types because of genre and nearly all in the magazine market use this.
House styles has made me understand that each magazine is made for a different purpose for the audience to read and that there are diverse magazine that may focus on a persons specific preference.
