BOOK COVERS - BOOK INTERIOR DESIGN - ILLUSTRATIONS - TYPOGRAPHY
Your story deserves to be cherished and showcased beautifully. I'm here to help you design a book that stands out on the shelf and instantly catches readers' eyes.
By combining attention-grabbing covers with balanced and aesthetically pleasing book interiors, I ensure a visually captivating result, an optimal reading experience and maximum readability for every reader.

In my portfolio, you'll find book covers for world-famous authors/nobelists like Olga Tokarczuk, Jessie Greengrass, George Orwell, Knut Hamsun, Dino Buzzati, and more.
For me, every book design is a unique journey into creating an image that will reflect and represent the essence and vision of each book. I consider my work to be soulful, colorful, fresh, catchy, appealing, inspiring, playful and emotional.
