Today we drew out thumbnail sketches of page layouts to try and gather some initial ideas for the double page spreads we will be designing. The process helped me to think about interesting ways to lay out a combination of images/diagrams, body text and headings.
I started the process by drawing out a rectangle of 34cm x 24cm. I then drew a diagonal line from the top left corner to the top right.
I used the diagonal line to draw a smaller rectangle of the same proportion with a top edge of 7cm. I then traced this rectangle numerous times and drew in margins, gutters and columns.
I was then able to experiment with different columns, headings and images. Shown above are the sketches.
