UK author Trish Brennan of, "How to Change the Game" wanted to create a 6x9 cover design that was inspiriting yet compelling. Geared towards women readers, I blended the edges of the hand, filtered the image background, and used a light lavender-blue and white gradient to soften the feel without lessening the impact of the book's powerful message.

A slate black background makes the bright colors pop on this A5 book cover spec. The slanted image adds an artistic effect that leads right to the edge of the spine fold. For coherence, the brilliant image colors were used for text throughout.

Goal: To create a brand new cover design for relaunch of a six-year-old book by freshening up the A5 layout with modern styling and typography. The complementary gradient background, compelling imagery, cohesive color palette and typeface choices resulted in a 'mission accomplished' outcome.
