This work brings magic squares of orders 6, 8 and 10. It unifies most of the works done before. Different types of constructions are considered. These includes, bordered, magic rectangles, double digits bordered, cornered, striped type, etc. It is summarized as the following points:

1. Boarded magic squares.
2. Bordered magic rectangles.
3. Algebraic formula (a+b)².
4. Double digits bordered magic squares.
5. Cornered magic squares.
6. Striped Magic Squares.

Just as an idea below are links of the works magic squares using the special aspects as double digits, corner, striped etc.
