Original Book Cover For
Visual Composition:

A shadowy, eerie depiction of a once-grand, decaying house surrounded by overgrown trees and fog. The foreground showcases faint silhouettes of a family entering the house, their features indistinct to convey mystery. Above the house, a translucent, ghostly figure subtly emerges, blending into the dark clouds, symbolizing the spirit’s presence. The color palette leans heavily on muted tones—grays, blacks, deep greens, and hints of faded browns—with glowing, pale light emitting from a single window in the house.

Design Typography:

Font Cinzel Decorative for the title, with its sharp, haunting style that evokes a gothic aura. Author's name in a subtler sans-serif elegant font (like Lato) with clean lines to balance the tone of the design. The title is large and centralized, while the author’s name rests at the bottom in smaller text.

Design Layout:

1. The title, *Ecos da Casa Abandonada*, is positioned at the top, centered, in large uppercase letters with glowing white or pale gray text to create contrast against the dark background. 2. The ghostly figure emerging above the house subtly blends into the illustration at the top of the cover, drawing attention upward. 3. The house takes prominence in the center of the cover, surrounded by fog, trees, and shadows. 4. The author’s name is positioned at the bottom, centered, in smaller letters with a clean sans-serif typeface.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition establishes the mystery and horror of the setting with an overgrown, eerie house and subtle ghostly imagery that reinforces the theme of spiritual haunting. The muted tones and shadowy visuals create an unsettling mood appropriate for a horror genre book, while the single glowing window represents life within the otherwise abandoned structure, adding layers of intrigue. The typography is well-chosen to match the genre—Cinzel Decorative evokes a gothic atmosphere, drawing readers to the title, while the sans-serif font for the author’s name maintains clarity and balance. The matte lamination with spot UV highlights brings a tactile element to the cover, making it more visually engaging and giving specific importance to the glowing aspects of the design.
