"For this cover, we started with the mountain range the author requested and expanded from there. The stormy sky and rainbow symbolize a new beginning emerging from a rocky past, with a gritty overlay to reflect the struggle in finding balance. We used clean, tracked-out sans serif text, popular at the time, contrasting with the texture of the sky to create a unique feel. I love integrating texture from the image into the text to unify the design."

"Set in a satirical future, Blake Hamner's PR chaos for an inept president and his deadly mechanical hounds inspired this design. I depicted the novel's absurdity by using a happy sticker to mask the terrifying dog’s face. I aimed for originality with this book cover, combining a political propaganda-style illustration with humor.The illustration style and colors are inspired by Soviet propaganda, and I combined various typographic elements to reflect the constructed nature of the storytelling."

"For this historical novel set in Concord, New Hampshire, during the time of Emerson and Thoreau (both characters in the novel), I thought, 'Since the setting is the main character, why not depict it?' I searched for period prints and found an engraving that I enhanced by reinforcing the black lines and adding color. The title font, Helsing, offers a hand-drawn, period look with a touch of wit that suits the story. I finessed the sweeping descender in the capital 'R' to preserve its charm."

"The sense of place was important to the book, based on the author's childhood. We used Google Maps images of a large estate as a starting point to highlight the theme of wealth disparity, which was a key theme in the book. The unusual rendering of the trees and the slightly off-color palette add a unique touch to the cover."

The Vicar Takes A Wife

Victoria Kovacs

"A sort of ‘Jane Austen goes West’ narrative this book needed to have a slightly humorous feel without being overtly funny. The tension between the two characters - a prostitute and a vicar - in Texas in 1877 is shown with the relationship between the various incongruous images, and the toned-down palette and typographic styling help to give a sense of the old photos of the period."

The Orangutan Rescue Gang

Joyce Major

"I try to convey the essence of the story or capture a moment when designing a book cover. The idea of the main characters hand in hand with the Orangutan gives a connection of love and protection which echoes throughout the book. The typography, colour and style gives a nod to the old adventure books and encapsulates the journey they are on."

The Multiplier's Mindset

Cynthia Anderson

Designed by Jonathan L.

"Given the book's title, I aimed to illustrate the concept of multiplication, inspired by Jesus' parable in Matthew 13:23 about the seed planted in good soil multiplying. The design has a rustic, earthy feel, fitting the agricultural metaphor. The background texture, distressed title font, color scheme, and unique divider between the title and subtitle all work together to create a strong, unified design."

The Nine Principles of Agile Planning

David Pabst

Designed by Peter S.

"Corporate strategy books don't often allow for much wit or boldness, so we worked with what we had. The title provided a clue, particularly the number 'nine.' I envisioned a grid of nine squares in different colors, dominated by a large number 9 with the title superimposed. I selected a subdued yet cheerful palette and a deco-inspired font (Blakely) that adds charm while remaining sober enough to avoid raising any corporate hackles."

The Order of Nature

"This novel tells of the struggles of being a gay man in Gambia. The profile suggests the main character and the pattern provides context. I looked at West African textiles for the appropriate color palette and geometry."

Out of the Night

Jonathan C. Blazer

"This design came about from a discussion with the author on establishing a visual brand for a series of supernatural books. The design style was classically restrained. The vector-illustrated imagery echoed the ghostly dreamlike quality of much of the story."

"For a book exploring the author’s relationship with women, I crafted a visual that is a labyrinth with the female form at the center. This visual also provides a framework to enclose the book’s title, subtitle, and author."

"I wanted the cover to visually capture the book's critique of how the digital industry often prioritizes tech over customer experience. The broken lollipop represents the frustration customers feel, while the bright colours and bold typography give it a professional and modern look. "

Daughter, Disappeared

Fiona MacBain

"The book is a sometimes-harrowing account of a mother’s search for her lost daughter in Tunisia. Within the book is a pivotal scene of an accident at sea. The cover illustrates that: a person clawing desperately upwards toward a small fishing boat, as they sink lower in the Mediterranean sea. This helps set’s a tone for the book: threat, search, survival."
