Conventions of Magazine Double-Page Spread

In a magazine, the double-page spread is two pages that are next to each other and working together to create one piece. These show the same content but on two pages and appear to be one. Double-page spreads have their own set of conventions.


Headline: Large text that displays the title of the article.

Large Image: Used to entice the reader and can be seen clearly on one page or connected on both pages.

Quote: If the article is from an interview, there will be a direct quote that grabs the readers attention presented by the image or as the headline.

Layout: Links two pages together and follows a consistent color scheme.

Mode of Address: The way the audience is addressed in the article.

Buzz Words: Words that grab the readers attention, such as "FREE" or "NEW."
