Layout principle

To the point

The clear grid creates a tidy and competent overall appearance.

The layout relies on clear content that is quickly comprehensible. It is therefore particularly important that the headline is kept short and crisp, that the image or illustration is carefully selected and that the copy contains a clear statement with a call-to-action.

Membership examples, layout variations

Same but different

Depending on the context and use of the print ads, the three-part grid can also be used to move the image window up or to extend an area to two-thirds.

Always make sure that the typography and the AO color range are used carefully.

Alternative promotion ads, events

Be prepared

The alternative promotion ads for events such as courses and seminars are based on the same primary grid as the membership ads, using the same typographical principles and the AO color range.

The course contents are listed on a light gray color field and can be supplemented with an illustration.

The CTA button is a variable element and is adapted in color and typography according to the context.
