-
The design brief required the cover to complement but not mirror the author’s earlier book LOVE YOUR BODY. The approach to the cover was typographically led design, accented with vignette illustrations. We wanted a hand-lettered approach, and given the foreign language market potential we needed a font that could create this effect. The colour choice on the cover was critical with to make the artwork pop and still feel in sync with the author’s first book. The fonts thru-out complement the retro-cartoon flavour of the illustrations that were commissioned for this book.
