Book covers by designer and illustrator Jim Tierney, awesome work!
Interesting to see on his site and blog all the covers that don’t get accepted, its one of the great shames of book designs that often the more interesting covers never make it onto the shelves. Some of the above are rejected covers, and are nicer than the ones that made it.
Think Jim is best known for his lovely Jules Verne covers.
Amazing typographic graphic design by American designer Luke Williams. Really liking his work, big emphasis on typography and hand lettering, which I really admire. Something I don’t have the skills to do in my own work unfortunately!
Especially loving the ‘Design takes root’ image, great idea and really well done. Looks awesome!
