Design Concept
Louis Mariposa is shown from behind in the center, slightly blurred, wearing a distinctive camel-colored suit. He holds an ancient papyrus rolled with a part illuminated by a mysterious orange glow. The background is nighttime Paris, with old buildings casting eerie shadows. A softly lit window suggests an ongoing investigation. Near Louis, the Eye of Horus subtly glimmers, and subtle occult forces are suggested by shadowy impressions. The color palette is primarily black with accents of orange and metallic gray.
Typeface A mix of modern serif and sans-serif fonts. Title "Les dossiers Mariposa" in a bold, elegant serif font in metallic gray. Author name, "Louis GRIMAUD," in sans-serif, uppercase, in a subtle orange tone.
Title at the top, large and centered, illuminated with an orange glow shadow. Louis Mariposa’s figure is centrally placed with the glowing papyrus drawing focus. The background fills with dark hues and contrasting shadowy buildings. Author name at the bottom, balanced and aligned with the width of the upper title.
This design maximizes the mystery and suspense by using a combination of blurred human figure and mystical elements such as the ancient papyrus and Eye of Horus. The nighttime Paris background with shadows adds to the eerie atmosphere, with the illuminated window indicating an ongoing investigation. The use of serif fonts for the title gives an elegant touch, while the sans-serif font for the author’s name ensures readability. The matte finish paper with spot UV coating enhances the tactile feel and visual appeal, making the title and mystical symbol pop, creating a sense of intrigue and fascination.
