As a part of a college project, we were asked to re-design a series of book covers. Growing up, I was fond of Roald Dahl's books and that's why I decided to redesign them.
One common element in most children's books is the use of character illustrations. I wanted to create them with minimal graphics and without the use of character illustrations. The illustrations revolve around the key elements of the book's plot.
I also wanted to have an elaborately designed spine to give an attractive look on the shelf as well - something which most books don't emphasise on.
