10 interesting book covers & research
Thomas Cavanagh
This book cover contains a sans
serif font, although the text on this
cover doesn’t exactly stand out, it is
the size of the text and background
colour that makes the cover
noticeable.
This book cover contains a serif font. This font
stands out because it looks more formal and
more visually attractive to look at. The use of
serif gives the book’s cover more of an edge,
rather than it just be a plain, simple text like
sans serif.
This book cover contains a script font.
Script makes the text more fancy, and
makes it more eye catching. Although the
book covers background colour isn’t
exactly a very noticeable colour, the font is
able to grab people’s attention instead.
This book cover uses decorative
text. This decorative font uses
negative spacing, this makes the
font stand out because the shapes
and letter sizes/shapes make the
cover noticeable.
10 interesting book coversThis book cover is interesting because it’s ironic. The book is about fonts, so to display this they’ve used different font styles to make up the text on the front cover.
This book cover is interesting
because the text is made out of
animals and a city like image, which
represents the title of the book “Zoo
City”.
This book cover title reads “Change the way you
see everything” This is ironic because you have
to read the title differently to understand what it
says. This type of irony should attract more
audience.
This book cover is quite artistic, as it
uses the letter “Z” to display an image off
a woman.
10 interesting book coversThis book cover is very busy, it’s also
quite confusing because the text
overlaps. The title is found on the
book twice so you know what you are
reading.
This book cover is also ironic because the title matches the image and text alignment. The woman is falling, and the text is aligned to make it look like it is also falling.
This book covers text is shaped
into a grenade shape, which
supports the title of the book.
The text for this book is
shaped into a hand, this may
be to support the idea of the
book, for example the story
behind it.
10 Interesting book coversThis book cover is interesting because it uses
the differences of both light and dark to give the
book title a more powerful meaning as the
background colours (black and white)
compliment this idea.
This book cover is interesting
because the gun forms the
shape of a country, this may be
done to represent the violence or
democracy in the specific
country, will will possibly be
explained in the book itself.
