Collector's Edition Book Covers

2021

A client approached me to design a collector's edition of fantasy novels (Malazan Book of the Fallen). I designed a set of cover illustrations (in three color combinations) and an illustration for the spine of the books. In collaboration with the book binder, I chose the corresponding linen colors as well as the typography.
