Maciej Mraczek – Designer

I design unique covers. Love to blending styles and experimenting with illustration and typography to capture each story’s soul.

Overview

Working with me means collaborating on a journey where design meets storytelling. With over 50 book covers in my portfolio including well-known authors like: Kafka, Proust, Joyce, Wilde, I specialize in translating the essence of classic literature into striking, memorable visuals. My designs span a variety of styles, from modern minimalism to rich, intricate layouts, always tailored to fit the narrative of each book. I’m deeply passionate about experimenting with illustration and typography, ensuring that every cover is not just a package but an experience—a compelling invitation for readers to dive in. I bring not only my design expertise but also a deep understanding of how visual elements can enhance and reflect the story within. Together, we’ll create a cover that stands out and resonates with your audience.
