Sci-Fi Paperback Covers #2
'Bright colors for a bright universe'
'Bright colors for a bright universe'
* Disclaimer* This project was developed during my MA at the University of Reading, where I attended the Book Design course. These are not Faber and Faber Ltd books, just dummies. The F&F logo has been used merely as a part of an exercise to make the mockups more realistic.
What I did for this project / I chose a literary genre and a hypothetical book series, studying the readership and the market, and I structured a brief. To respond to it I developed two graphic concepts, working on typography, grid and creating the illustrations.
‘Science fiction and fantasy are not something to be enjoyed secretly as a semishameful substitute for reality; they are a glad extension of reality, the addition of still brighter colors to a bright universe.'
