Magazine double page spread example - Q

This is a double page spread from Q magazine. What I like about this double page spread is the layout for the text. I also like the idea of having a section of the double page spread for the image instead of having pictures in the middle of the text. The layout is nice and tidy so it will be easier for the reader to navigate around it.

The colours used match the main colours of the magazine which are white, black and red. The background is white with a mix of red and black text. I like the way the colours have been used for the article. I can have one colour for my questions and another colour for the rest of the text.

I think I could use this example to decide how my text will be placed on my double page spread. I will need to make sure that my picture does not overlap the text and also my picture is clearly visible and not covered by text.
