Digital photography book

This cover is minimal open and clean to put all of the focus on the photography. The two images chosen work well together because they have a similar concept in line and silhouette but also have contrast with one warm and one cool color. The font has a technological feel and is bold and easy to read in all caps. A repeating arrow element adds a graphic that can be used throughout the cover to create the feeling of a brand. It also illustrates the concept of movement, travel and repetition which are all necessary elements in this particular aspect of photography.

Keith Unger is a struggling musician. On one fateful night, after a gig attended by only one person, he is evicted from his apartment. His car is booted for hundreds of unpaid tickets. And at a post-gig meeting in a coffee shop, Keith’s band quits on him. His social-climbing girlfriend, Candy, dumps him, and his barely scrupulous manager, Harry Chukstein, severs ties with him. Keith goes to a cliff in Malibu, with his best friend the golden lab Lennon, intending to jump into the ocean. He changes his mind, but it doesn’t matter, because the ground beneath Keith’s feet crumbles and he tumbles into the ocean. Overnight Keith becomes the biggest rock star in the world. But Keith isn’t dead.

Silhouette book cover with the title 'Mysterious and scenic romance book cover'

Mysterious and scenic romance book cover

This cover was created for a romance novel exploring themes of love, loss, and emotional depth, aimed at a young adult audience. In line with the client’s brief, I designed a mysterious, atmospheric composition. A line art illustration represents a close-up of the couple’s faces as they stand on a beach beneath palm trees, bathed in moonlight, enhancing emotional intimacy without overpowering the overall scene. The glowing moon reflects softly on the rippling ocean, while a single blue rose is subtly integrated into the right side of the scene, symbolizing remembrance and delicate emotion. The color palette leans into deep blues and shadowy tones, with accents of yellow to evoke a moody yet romantic atmosphere. Typography follows a contrasting style: the title appears in bold, uppercase serif, reminiscent of engraved stone, while the subtitle is styled in delicate, lowercase italics, quiet and poetic.

Silhouette book cover with the title 'Anatomy of a Female Narcissist for Men'

Anatomy of a Female Narcissist for Men

The client wanted something that really gives a literal sense of what the anatomy of a female narcissist would look like. The silhouette idea of a woman’s body with a black heart or toxic symbol where the heart should be was his brief suggestion. I went for a eye-catcher kind of horror poster movie vibe and created a tattooed woman silhouette to that effect. Implemented were some grungy and rusty textures, visible cracks plus the central biohazard symbol on her heart of glass. Striking title inside the silhouette is handwritten and fills as much space as possible. Great collaboration!

Chief Executive Team

If you could change the way one team interacts, to make the most impact on the company, which would you choose? The Agile team? The R&D team? The sales team? The Executive Team has the power to maximize or destroy the work of any other team in the company, including itself. But top executives don’t consider themselves a team, because usually they don’t function as one. Executive teams tend to be the worst team in the company, exactly where you need the best one.
