About us

Language and communications training.

What's your vision?

We have written a book called "Stop Being German" which is aimed at German learners of English. The contents of the book describe typical errors German speakers of English make when speaking and/or writing English. The book also provides practice exercises. A sample unit is attached. The front must contain very boldly the title "Stop Being German" but in much less prominent script, and before the title, it should read in German "für perfektes Englisch"

The Brief

Other notes

Serious or humorous designs will be considered. The book is aimed at adults, especially those who use English for professional or business purposes. Just in case it is not obvious to anybody, we do not, of course, wish to see any references to Naziism nor any any nationalistic symbols.

Bronze package

Every design category has flexible pricing for all budgets. Book cover starts at $299.

You Don't Have to Say You Love Me

You Don't Have to Say You Love Me

Client: 99designs Year: 2017 — “You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me” is a best-selling memoir from Sherman Alexie, brimming with personal poems and essays that work through his volatile relationship with his mother.

Hope Street

Hope Street

Client: Rhonda Macken Year: 2018 — Cover for a memoir recounting one woman’s battle with multiple personality disorder. Rhonda Macken was raised by a father suffering from PTSD, consequently triggering her own battle with mental health. The design requires an authentic consideration of the author’s trauma and how her naiveté as a child proved too demanding of her ability to cope. I concentrated around a striking image of a young girl hiding behind a mask. The handle cut across her face originally which made the image look less deliberate, so I moved it off her face to get a clear portrait. Even the subtitle, written in my own handwriting, is careful not to eclipse her presence. What I find so engrossing about this photo is that using a mask is an act of imitation; imitation is significant in child development. In this instance of someone learning behavior, I see an ingenuous girl asking “who am I and is this who I am supposed to be?”
