CoP Publication: Format

The format of the publication should reflect the content in some way.

A few ideas that would be relevant to the content of my publication are:


  • Directly copy and existing layout and design, simply changing the content
  • Don't use Creative Suite and only use Office and online facilities
  • Follow stylistic fashions and current trends
  • Design in a way that is inimitable- creative and experimental publication
  • A series of publications that offer different perspectives on the topic- designers, operators of Vista Print etc, clients, businesses that use Vista Print for templates etc.
  • A collection of the same publication in a series of different styles to show that style does/ doesn't affect content.
  • Look into other things that imitate each other/ follow trends (nature, Lyre bird, mannequins?) design in style of this.
These are some formats and editorial based design that I find aesthetically pleasing and effective:

I could incorporate holes/ acetate in the pages to illustrate certain points I make:

Designing a range that work together and offer different ideas/ viewpoints could be effective

Incorporating tactile and interactive elements will make the publication stand out and easier to take in and engage with.
