Design Concept
A vivid illustration of a bustling fishing village scene in Afurada, with intricate details of fishermen mending nets, women (peixeiras and varinas) carrying fish baskets by the docks, and colorful traditional fishing boats swaying gently in the blue waters. The background features softly sketched horizon lines where the azure sky meets the sea, while overlapping fishing nets frame the cover subtly.
The book title "AFURADA E SUA GENTE À MINHA MANEIRA" appears in an elegant yet bold serif typeface, with a slightly weathered texture to evoke the nautical and traditional feel of the coastal community. The author’s name, "Manuel Lapas," is in a smaller but complementary sans-serif font, placed at the bottom of the cover.
The title is prominently located in the upper center, slightly curved to emulate the feel of a boat’s hull. The illustration is the focal point, taking up most of the cover space, with subtle details like fishing nets and sea foam creating depth. The author’s name sits neatly at the bottom center, with color gradients from deep ocean blue to lighter shades of blue that provide a harmonious feel.
The visual composition captures the essence of Afurada’s cultural and occupational identity, which matches the book’s romanticized celebration of its people. The fishing nets and boats emphasize the fishing heritage, while the lively dock scene adds depth to the nostalgia. For typography, the chosen serif font adds elegance and authenticity, hinting at the romance and tradition central to the story, while the sans-serif font for the author’s name ensures legibility. The layout is balanced, with the illustration taking precedence but not overwhelming the title or author’s name. Opting for textured matte paper and spot gloss achieves a tactile quality reminiscent of a sailor's lived experience, anchoring the design in its coastal inspiration.
