CONCEPT
Brief Create a range of 5 book covers for 5 Penguin Modern Classics combining illustration and illustrative lettering as the main design aesthetic. Background A lot of Penguin stories are known both in celluloid and print, so it is essential to come at it from a fresh angle. Try to design a new cover for a new generation of readers, avoiding the obvious clichs and steering clear of the film promotional graphics. Originality is key. Consideration should also be taken as to where the books would be distributed. Target Audience Audiences: all readers both familiar and unfamiliar with the text, male and female. Solution/Deliverables Five book cover designs and a typeface for each, as well as proposal for five accompanying iPhone themes and Google Chrome themes. Additional proposal for distribution and point of sale.
