Title font

We have a pretty decent name, so to go with our pretty decent name we decided we need a pretty decent font.

Alas!

Our Nang Logo

We like this because we feel that it enables hundreds of different colour combinations to suit the magazine covers and our individual tastes. We also like it because it stems from one of our influences of 'Pop Magazine'


We liked the idea of our title looking like a logo as well as a mast head as it is even more easier to recognise this way. 'Pop' is one of our influences (as well as Flux magazine previously mentioned) as we like the way in which its minimalistic style and focus on quality photographs makes it stand out against its competitors and other magazines that go for more 'busy' front covers. It also appeals to us most in terms of a magazine. The lack of text and headlines on the front cover ironically acts as bait to readers as it lures in readers with its artistic black and white photo opening the curiosity in the hope that it is picked up by a curious passer by.
