MAGAZINE


http://www.designindaba.com/profiles/enjin

Layout

I would say that the layout of this magazine is very simple in the sense that the main focus stays on the image/photograph/illustration and the text/font on the cover stays minimal.  The logo/title of the magazine is also simple and is always easily seen despite the other contents of the cover.  Every issue of the magazine seem to have a completely different idea and design approach.  I think this keeps people interested in the magazine and exposes readers to news on current design possibilities

Type

The type in this magazine seems to be very simple to keep emphasis on the main image/photograph/illustration.  The type doesn't overpower the imagery, even the type used for the logo is simple, its just modified a bit and used in an interesting way.

Content

The content of this magazine stretches from stories inspired by creativity to reviews of upcoming artists and designers and what inspire them to pursue the world of art and design.  The content is designed to keep people interested.

Style

I would say that the style of Enjin is modern yet simple but still interesting enough to appeal to all types of artists and designers.  The design style is "free" and on the "edge".  There is a certain design structure but every issue still has the potential of being unexpected and "new".

Genre

Art/Design

Niche/Market

Young, up and coming designers/artists looking for inspiration or just an interesting read...
