objective
Design a series of three book covers to represent a reissue from a publisher. Each selected title should be different enough from each other to give individuality to the books; however, they all need to have some grounding elements to tie them all together.
APproach
The books I chose are Love in the Time of Cholera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, and Norwegian Wood. They’re all books with the theme of a tangle between love and desire. To show the complexity and the contradiction, I created two tones of voice with my handwriting. One is soft and restraining, while another one is crazy and unbridled.
