Final Magazine Cover and Double-Page Spread Design

Here is my final design for the Digital Arts Magazine design. I chose to call my cover the "Art of Typography" due to the dynamic interconnection between type and design. I wanted to express my design with an eclectic and symmetrical style that defines the Art Deco style. Art Deco theaters became popular during the 1930's (wikipedia). I also wanted to incorporate the high use spot lights highly used during that time period.  The double-page spread also has a design based on type.   I felt the need to create a relationship between the Art Deco cover and the spread in order to maintain the balance needed for design.  The article included in the spread explains the design process for the photograph provided on the spread.
