The design style that fits the theme is a big step for the success of this book. Presenting the theme of the book on the cover, the coordination of the style of the work and the design that fits the theme of the book are more conducive to showing the style of the work.
For example, the author and teacher have their own ideas and pursuits for the cover of the work, and list three requirements:
1 vertical calligraphy: Dream back to Jingxi Ancient Town
The background is old map style, and the color is dark green+brown+red.
3 roses, petals fluttering; There are sheep's head signs and question marks on the background wall.
In order to meet the needs of the author's teacher and paste the theme of the cooperative product, the design teacher combined the question mark and the base map elements on the upper cover, and the rose and the sheep's head were skillfully combined, adding a touch of mystery to the work. The heads of the three protagonists on the back cover are more in line with the settings of the protagonists in the works, which is very clever.
Some authors want simple style, some want tall design style, some want to highlight the theme of their works ... and so on, which are actually achievable.
Therefore, the cover of a book, on the one hand, should meet the demands of the author and teachers, on the other hand, it should also take into account the audience's love. How to balance the two can also attract readers' attention. Cover design is very important.
