Classic covers

Abstract

"Don't judge a book by its cover" is a statement we are constantly told; yet we are all guilty of. Avid readers are familiar with the known book covers of the classic novels such as To Kill A Mockingbird, The Scarlet Letter, and Moby Dick. Classic Covers is a series of redesigned book covers for ten classic novels. These covers are minimalistic, hand created, and three-dimensional. They explore graphic design as it was originally created with hand cut paper and vector images. I created these book covers based on what I believed to be significant events or parts of each novel. They create what I believe to be the feel and theme for each novel.
