Overview
I work as a creative and art director, leading an award-winning team of designers, typesetters, and illustrators. Working with me means enjoying the luxury of engaging a seasoned creative crew devoted to book design.
Working with independent authors is a rewarding experience because I can bridge literature and visual arts. I help authors promote their work by creating meaningful and enticing covers based on solid concepts.

Very satisfied with working with Xavier. He submitted more than one excellent idea for a cover for my memoir and was happy to discuss with me which one to develop further. His communication was always friendly, engaged, helpful, quick and professional, and I'm very satisfied indeed with the result.

He has been excellent in communicating and I appreciate the amount of thought he’s put into the work so far.
