To Kill a Mockingbird
50th Anniversary Edition Concept
50th Anniversary Edition Concept
To Kill a Mockingbird is a novel by Harper Lee published in 1960. It was immediately successful, winning the Pulitzer Prize, and has become a classic of modern American literature.
The challenge was to design a 50th anniversary edition of To Kill a Mockingbird that celebrates the timeless nature of Harper Lee’s novel.
A minimalist color scheme of back and white was chosen to highlight this classic novel. In view of the fact that there is an emphasis in To Kill a Mockingbird on the power of the words we speak, a typographic illustration style was chosen as the best solution for illustrating the meaningful themes of the story. A sleeve was created to not only protect the pristine white cover, but also to provide distinction for this enduring story after 50 years of continued recognition.
