       The typical size of a layout for a magazine spread is 8.5 x 11 in a standard size. I decided to research more information on magazine layout to make sure I have the right specs for this project. A magazine ad has several elements in the design we have talked about all semester. The level of hierarchy establishes the organization  of the page and material that's going on the page. The importance of typography makes and breaks the piece. You don't want all the information all over the place and unorganized, because it will make the page hard to read and uneasy to follow. I found templates I could use today to help me get started for my two page design spread.
