In music magazines, continuity seems important, for example, each magazine has a 'house style' which is evident in every issue. A house style is important for two main reasons: a house style design is usually appealing, attracting the particular audience the magazine is aimed at; and the house style is a template in which every page is designed around, therefore, each page doesn't have to be designed by scratch.
I'm going to look at some of the music magazines which I find most attractive to see what elements make up their house style, I will then build my house style around those particular elements.
