Redesigning ALL the work I did at the beginning of the year.
The idea behind it is that the work inside is writers responses to book covers I designed. The book covers were designed before the writing itself, therefore subverting the usual book cover thing.

The cover itself is meant to represent the breaking/changing/subverting of a 'classic' book cover, also, kind of modernising it. hence the glitches.

The cover will be screenprinted metallic gold onto quite a thick, dark blue cover - I want it to look orante and classic.

Good idea Andy, I like it.

I'd maybe do something else with the type. Stick with your theme, take something traditional or 'classic' and fuck it up. Maybe take a nice serif font and make it look sprayed on or something.

edit: or something better than that.

I like it. And I like how well considered all your recent work is, like the Self-Control cover.

Thanks alot guys. And Meve, I'm definitely gonna play about with a serif. Maybe serif version of typeface for 'breaking traditions' and sans version of same typeface for 'books by covers.' Anybody know of any fonts that have both serif and sans versions?

Was gonna say Rotis but it’s rather ugly. Try Meta.
