Design Concept

standing book mockup, Its title is "Cidade na sombras". Its author name is W.Souza.  A dimly lit urban scene of Belo Horizonte set at night, focusing on the Lagoinha neighborhood and Taquaril's winding streets. The backdrop features wet asphalt reflecting faint streetlights, creating a misty and tense atmosphere. Shadows of dense city buildings loom over the scene. In the foreground, Anaya appears in partial darkness on the right side of the cover, her piercing gaze partially hidden in shadow. On the left, Lucas is depicted holding a flashlight, illuminating part of the scene, while a crimson hint from an emergency light brings an ominous tone to the cover. Subtle graffiti lines the background walls, with wires overhead adding complexity to the visual. The title, “O Desaparecimento de Anaya,” is set in a bold sans-serif font with a gritty texture, colored muted red or crisp white for high contrast. The subtitle, “Um romance policial de justiça e segredos,” is in a smaller, clean block typeface for readability. The author’s name, “W. Souza,” is positioned discreetly in the bottom-right, using the same typeface as the subtitle for consistency., The title spans the upper third of the cover, creating a balance with the artwork below. Lucas and Anaya occupy the sides of the cover in a balanced arrangement, their positioning leading the viewer’s eye to the beco mal iluminado in the center. The background cityscape fades into an almost pitch-black upper space, blending with the typographical elements. The translucent subtitle sits beneath the characters, while the author’s name occupies the lower corner in subtle alignment with visual elements.
