In this project, I designed the covers of three books of my choosing. I wanted to explore book cover design in a new and modern way, by simplifying my designs down to shapes and forms. I picked books that traditionally had very ornate and elaborate covers—The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Peter Pan and Wendy, and Alice in Wonderland—and transformed them using minimal shapes and colors.
My minimalist approach stemmed from wanting each book to take on a modern spin on their respective classic. Since many times the cover of these books are illustrative, I wanted to keep it simple and minimalistic to appeal to young and old alike.
