REIMAGINING BOOKS

A purple printed program with a decorative heart and leaf design at the top, listing track titles for two sides, labeled 'Tracks,' with various song or story titles.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

THE PROJECT INVOLVED DESIGNING A SET OF LIMITED EDITION ALBUM COVERS BASED ON THREE BOOKS BY A FAMOUS AUTHOR. THE THREE MUST BE DESIGNED AS A SET AND PRESENTED AS SUCH. EACH COVER SHOULD CAPTURE THE MOOD, STORY AND KEY IDEAS OF THE BOOK WHILE REFLECTING THE WIDER THEMES ACROSS THE AUTHOR’S WORK.

PROJECT CONCEPT

THE AUTHOR I CHOSE WAS NEIL GAIMAN. I USED THREE OF HIS MOST POPULAR BOOKS TO CREATE A COLLECTION OF VINYL COVERS. I CREATED AN ENTIRE COLLECTION CONSISTING OF THE VINYLS, TRACK CARDS AND QR CODE CARDS FOR CORRESPONDING SONGS. THE DESIGN WAS INSPIRED BY KEY ELEMENTS OF EACH STORY, GIVING YOU AN INSIGHT INTO THE STORY MUCH LIKE A BOOK COVER WOULD. THE TRACK CARDS HAVE REPEATING ELEMENTS AND THE CHAPTER TITLES AS IF THEY SONGS ON THE RECORD.

A printed track list with a dark blue background, decorative white floral design at the top, titled 'Tracks,' listing songs on two sides.
Blue program with a white leaf and lantern graphic at the top, titled "Tracks" with two columns of song titles and descriptions for a musical or theatrical production.
A vinyl record next to a blue album cover titled 'The Graveyard Book' by Neil Gaiman, with decorative white line art on the cover.
Three Spotify playlist cards with floral borders and text, titled 'Living Things - Linkin Park', 'This place will become your tomb - Sleep Token', and 'We are not your kind - Slipknot'.
A vinyl record and its paper sleeve with a purple cover featuring white floral designs and the title 'Fragile Things' by Neil Gaiman.
