G.F.Smith - exploring masculine, feminine and gender neutral papers

"... the shape and texture of women's lives..."
Women's Worlds: Ideology, Felinity and the Woman's Magazine pg 30

  • Just this simple sentence from a book that was used for women's magazine research triggered a thought of how "shape and texture" could actually be applied to a design strategy to give further meaning to the pages of the publication
  • A magazine arguably dictates the way in which people should lead their lives and whilst researching into semiotics I realised subconsciously the design aspect of the magazine really reflects upon what they want the reader to be or aspire to be
  • Whether its high fashion luxury, overly feminine or masculine content


"Feminine"






Gender neutral 






"Masculine"
