This month’s roundup of interesting cover designs that have caught my eye appears to have a leaning toward red and orange. There’s also a slight duotone theme running through many of them too. Strong colour and a black and white image, be that a photograph or illustration is such an effective visual treatment for a cover.
The oddball in this month’s mix is Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros. The cover was designed by No One Designs and doesn’t fit with my usual aesthetic. However, I think it stood out to me due to the illustration interweaving through the type.
Have you seen any covers recently that have inspired you?
