Design Direction (Concept)
The general design evolves around sharp, geometric shapes, the main graphic is a symbol or an item relative to the text setting the mood for the book's story. Very minimal shapes with emphasis on the typography was the main goal while retaining the feeling of each book and maintaining the layout as each book is part of a collection.
