Bookjackets

The goal of this project was to develop three different-looking bookjackets for
a fiction book of our choice. After research of themes and exploration of visuals,
the task was to design the three bookjackets with different dominant focuses:
image based, type based, and a designer’s choice. The use of writing exercises
to develop compound words as concepts was a major part of developing the
correct look and feel of the book chosen. My choice, Ender’s Game, is a novel
of the science fiction genre. For me the goal was to not only to create well-rounded
bookjacket designs, but to also design with a very particular audience
in mind.
