Design Principles: Final 10 Double Page Spreads

Below are a my final layouts for studio brief 2. They have changed from my original layouts which were on a 3 column grid system, whereas these are on a 2 column grid system. I found that 2 columns   made the content much clearer, although I worry that it makes the layouts look dull. My layouts don't vary much from page to page but this consistency makes the spreads collectively easier to navigated. The reader knows that the text runs along the top and diagrams/examples a fit into the bottom section of the page.
I believe my layouts are very effective in presenting the content in a clear way. Feedback showed that the content is easy to navigate. In future I would like to try creating layouts that stand out more to a passer-by as these do not, but these layouts are intended more for a book where it is less necessary, and more important to view the content clearly.
