Mahli Hihla

Mahli Hihla – Designer

I offer book interior design, covers, and consulting. My main objective: provide you with a creative design as individual as your book.

Overview

Mahli first entered the graphic artist field in the 1980s, during a time when many publications were still designed by hand and eye. Bringing those older techniques into the 21st century, Mahli has put aside her blue pencil and lightbox for the latest computer and online design technologies--but never neglects the valuable experience she gained from 'old-school' lessons and skills.

Offering a personalized experience, she not only designs book interiors and covers (print as well as ebook), but can provide a wide selection of branded materials for promotion and advertising.

Mahli also offers one-on-one consulting, including expert assistance with the various online distributors and printers, to help make your publishing experience as smooth as possible.
