Nuno Moreira – Designer

We are a professional design studio based in Lisbon, specializing in Book Design for publishing houses, small presses, and independent authors worldwide.

𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲.

At our core, we believe that every book is unique and deserves a thoughtful, tailored approach. Our process begins with a deep engagement with your manuscript —understanding its themes, tone, and essence. From there, we design the cover, develop the interior layout (if needed), and guide you through every step—from manuscript to print-ready files and independent publishing. If this is your first time self-publishing, we’ll provide practical tips and support to help navigate the process smoothly.

By working with us, you’ll receive a carefully crafted book that considers every detail: paper choice, typography, readability, visual coherence, and thoughtful design methods. Our work is defined by atmosphere, mood, tension, and dynamic typography, always aiming for designs that are evocative, striking, and engaging. We go beyond literal interpretations, crafting book covers and layouts that stimulate the eye and spark curiosity.

𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗔𝗖𝗛 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗚𝗨𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗦

𝟭. 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝘂𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁

We begin each project by reading the full manuscript or draft to develop a deep understanding of the content. This informs our conceptual and visual design approach, ensuring that the final result is both meaningful and impactful.

𝟮. 𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝘀

Every cover we create is entirely original—crafted with unique artworks, photographs, or illustrations. We don’t use templates, stock images, or work with pre-made concepts. Our designs are bespoke, offering a fresh and artistic interpretation of your story.

If you're looking for someone to simply execute predefined ideas, we might not be the best fit. We prioritize artistic freedom and innovative approaches, aiming to create something non-literal—often rooted in symbolism and open interpretation. Most clients come to us seeking a new perspective on their books, and that’s exactly what we strive to deliver.

𝟯. 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀

After reading your book and developing initial sketches, we present three finalized cover concepts for your review. You’ll select the concept that best resonates with your vision, and we’ll refine that direction to perfection—delivering print-ready and digital files for your publishing needs.

We adapt our design and production processes to suit the unique requirements of each project, ensuring a personalized and collaborative experience.
