This is an issue of Red magazine , as you can tell, the title is a red font a swell as some cover lines, for the title, red is a very eye catching, it also is a very energetic colour and provides a nice boost of energy or a hopefully exciting read. Also many of the cover lines are red to give it a energetic and fun look, but also there are elements of black colours, these stand out among the red and work really well with numerical text. And last we have the background, now this background is also in a area like a garden or woodland, there are nice green colours behind Ms Paltrow, as well has the relaxing garden feel as the background, the green provides a feeling of love, balance and harmony, things needed for a good read.

Colour Connotations In Magazines

Different Colours can convey different meanings or connotations to the viewer.

 Different magazines, especially special interest magazines will have specific colours for the specific audiences.

Sports:

            If i was designing a magazine for sports, the background i would use would be red, this is because study show that when people see the colour red it increases Physical Energy, something extremely important needed in sport.

Gaming:

               For a gaming magazine i may use a yellow colour, as it increases fun, and humour, something  you always need to have, especially when your gaming, and it shouldn't be different while reading a gaming magazine.
