Design Concept
A shadowy scene envelopes the cover, depicting a girl just barely visible in the crescent of shadow, her puffy, curly hair blending into the dark backdrop. The focal point is her piercing, icy blue eyes, slightly aglow against the backdrop, suggestive of mystery and intensity. Clutched to her chest is an old, weathered book, its leather cover and worn edges peeking out in detail, symbolizing its revered importance to the story. Silhouettes of dystopian architecture lurk faintly in the background, hinting at a world in disarray.
The book title is in a bold sans-serif font with subtle distressed and grunge elements. "The Art of Villany" is an icy metallic blue, catching light like a cold blade and sitting prominently at the top. The subtitle "A guide" in a smaller, smooth script font adds contrast and intrigue. Author name "Taís N. da Cunha Araújo" is in a polished serif font at the bottom.
The girl's figure is central, pushing the book and her eyes as main visual elements. The title arcs above her head, balanced by author name below, creating a layered effect through foreground and background elements.
The visual composition centers on suspense, drawn from the mystery girl in shadows with distinguishable icy eyes, suggesting depth and narrative intrigue—key in dystopian thrillers. The subtle presence of dystopian architecture further roots the book's setting without overpowering the central character. Typography choices elevate the sense of thriller and suspense; an edgy sans-serif font grabs the reader’s attention, while the serif font provides a classic touch to the author's name, enhancing its prominence and recall. The matte and gloss technique in materials gives the design a sophisticated, layered appearance, maximizing visual interest and ensuring focal points stand out effectively, thus engaging potential readers at first glance.
