Description: Langley Lifestyle is a trendy lifestyle magazine issued quarterly, designed to inspire its readers to entertain at home with everything from well-planned menus and delicious recipes to sophisticated and stylish home decor tips.

Langley Lifestyle is a combination of name and hobby. The name Langley was developed by combining my maiden name (Lindsley) and my married name (Lang). Entertaining is something I truly enjoy and a quarterly like Langley Lifestyle would provide fresh ideas and ease to hosting.

 To develop the aesthetic, I researched various cooking and home decor magazines along with brands that are in line with the messaging of Langley Lifestyle. The layout focuses on white space as a way to accentuate the beautiful photography, purposeful typography and results in an overall clean, sophisticated feel. The on-trend color palette of natural mauve and jewel tone green is designed to speak to the target audience of women ages 25 to 55.
