Before&After: Design on a Centerline
An image, a typeface, and one line are all you need to set a classy scene on this design for a rush schedule for an academic program.
This small schedule must convey the nobility of the school and the artistic spirit of the program. It must be handy to use, printable in-house, and cheap. Oh, and it must be finished tonight. Watch as we limit fonts and colors to the basics and the layout to a simple configuration. An image, a typeface, and one line are all we need to set a classy scene. This 22-page article from issue 41 of Before&After Magazine shows you how to convey quiet beauty using a centered layout.

Establish a relationship between image and page. Ask: What are the boldest characteristics of each? What properties do they have in common? Work with those.
