Casablanca: Movies and Memory
Design by Quemadura
Gun to my head, if I had to pick a favorite principle of design, repetition would win hands down. That's why Casablanca: Movies and Memory caught my eye.
I have to say, though, that Peter Mendelsund's design of K. pretty much sets an unmatchable standard. Man, I love this cover:

just saw this in the U Minn catalog today...and it really stood out.
Agreed. I really want to see the spine and back.
I find the first hard to read- feels like stuttering to me.

...I'm a let you finish, but yeah that Mendelsund cover is definitely ONE OF THE BEST COVERS OF ALL TIME!
Hey, no Kanye memes! :-)
Seriously, though, I've always loved that K. cover.
I like the Casablanca one better than K. It reminded me of a filmstrip.
CCCCCCCCCasablanca....

Repetition is great—when done by people who know what they are doing.
first time to see like these pictures.. Unique.
