House style
The colour pallet is constant through the front cover onto the contents page. The colour pallet of this magazine is red, black and gold. The use of a minimal amount of colours makes this magazine easier to navigate around. The use of colour also signifies a posh standard of presentation. The font is also constant throughout the magazine. 


Mode of address
The mode of address for this magazine is informal personal pronouns. This is used to entice the right audience. The target audience would be people who enjoy rock music and that genre and generic idea of that crowed are messy and informal. 


Layout
The layout of this magazine's contents page is sporadic. There are 8 images and 12 different pieces of text, so the righting to images ratio of fairly balanced with space between to make the page look less cluttered. The main contents and at the bottom of the page and these are quite regimented in the way they a laid out. The top Three quarters of the page are the main stories and cover stories being brought up again. The contents leaks onto the second page but then half of that page is used up by 'The Q Review'.


Type Face
This is all the same or similar Font styles to avoid unwanted confusion. There are a few irregular uses of fonts but these are well uses when applied to show something is different to to make it stand out.
