New from Penguin, these covers for David Thomson's books about movie idols comprise what good series design is all about: beauty in the aggregate, with enough abstraction and variation to render each unique. Has anyone seen these in person? I so want those marquee lights to be spot varnish.
Wow… love the subtle varieties. I've never seen a vector marquee look so good!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful designs.
ReplyDeletelooks like morse code.
ReplyDeletesimple yet effective idea. beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThey're matte and no, sorry, no special finishes like spot varnish on the lights. They've still got a very appealing feel to them though: great little books.
ReplyDeleteWow... these are beautiful books. Thanks for sharing!
