Design Concept
A young Italian man with black curly hair, olive skin, and red eyes stands confidently in the center of the cover. He is wearing a red pinstripe suit and holding a fan of cards with spades on them. In the background, there are shadowy figures and classic 1960s Italian architecture. A calendar displaying the date "June 9th" is subtly integrated into the background design.
A classic serif font such as Garamond for the title "June 9th" in large, bold letters at the top. The author's name, Kaylee Umstead, in a smaller, elegant script font like Pinyon Script at the bottom.
The young man in the center, holding the cards slightly towards the right. The title at the top in large font. The author’s name at the bottom. Background elements are subtle, but clearly visible to set the 1960s Italian scene. A calendar is integrated as a faint watermark behind the main character.
The visual composition aims to convey a mix of cleverness, craftiness, hurt, and conflicted emotions through the young, sharply dressed Italian man holding cards, symbolizing both his involvement in the mafia and the era's aesthetic. The background with shadowy figures and 1960's Italian architecture sets the historical mood and the context. The calendar subtly hints at the significance of the date, potentially key to the plot. The choice of a classic font adds a timeless quality to the cover, reinforcing the historical aspect. The matte finish with a textured feel evokes a vintage touch, making the book a tactile experience. Combining these elements establishes a strong visual identity that ties closely with the book’s genre and narrative.
