penguin / development

Once the front cover had a solid direction I started to focus on how the design would look with the spine and back.



The large amounts of type that needed to be on the back cover were quite difficult to place. The feedback on this design is that the typeface is too thin and quite illegible. Responding to that, I changed the typeface to white and used Gill Sans which is more pronounced and easier to read. 


The quote from the Sunday express is now placed along the wavy lines and the blurb is more integrated with the lines rather than just placing a black box underneath. At the moment the design looks quite clean. A texture including faint fingerprints and dust was added in the background to convey the real tangible evidence compared to the abstract flow of the composition.
