Semester:
Spring 2020
Type of Project:
Book Cover ReDesign
Objective
The objective for this project was to choose three
books, either a series or three similar ones and
redesign their covers keeping the design strictly
type based. Each cover should be unique but
work together as a set.
Concept
I chose to recreate the covers for my personal favorite
series, the Harry Potter books. I recreated the
first three books for this project. The series is
all about magic and for this project I wanted to try
creating vintage style type, something that was
new to me but I felt would fit nicely with this
theme. I then used type to create elements that
were important in that specific book, the snitch,
the basilisk fang, and the time turner.
