Typography Layouts

Four layouts with the same text, using the same paragraph and character styles on a 5 × 8 grid.

Page 1: a black poster band with a red block holding the pull quote and the stacked title JSOUR SERORS in white, with two columns of body text below.
01 No images

This page uses only type. The title and pull quote are on a black and red block at the top, with two columns of text and the bullet list below.

Page 2: the Seattle skyline at night bleeds across the top with the white title, subtitle and lead set over a dark gradient, and the pull quote in the sky.
02 Large photo

The Seattle photo covers the top of the page. I added a dark gradient so the white title and intro are easy to read over it.

Page 3: the black stacked title beside a photo of the Arc de Triomphe, a large pull quote, and body text wrapping around a koala photo.
03 Text wrap

The koala photo has a 6 pt text wrap, so the text goes above and below it.

Page 4: a cyclist photo beside a solid red block with the white title, two columns of text, a stacked column of three photos, and a large black pull quote at the foot.
04 Photo column

A column of three photos runs down the right side, with a line separating it from the text.
