Double Page Spread - Article research

I like the article title within this DPS as it uses a paraphrased pull quote and the color scheme is likely to bring attention to the article. The text within the article is quite simplistic, so likely to be understood by a wider audience. There is little text that isn't from the interview, and the way the interview is presented breaks up the main text to make it easier to follow.

I love the use of drop caps in this article, it looks really modern and I like the design work. I love that within the first paragraph, Lana Del Ray's name is not mentioned until quite far down, which brings up the suggestion that the audience must be already somewhat familiar with the artist. The colloquial, yet somewhat formal language used such as the contrast of the tone within "She's mourning someone or about to knife them" to that of "the camera accentuates the big deep pools of her eyes". 

I like this article a lot, especially the way the text wraps around the model. I love that the kicker is used to directly address the audience and draw them in. The color scheme runs throughout and is very effective. The smaller titles throughout the article help to break up the columns and guide the reader, and each of them have a common theme, starting with "thou shalt" which ties the article together.
