Design Concept
Two comic-style illustrated men with middle-aged physiques occupy the center of the cover. One man has a typical "dad bod" and the other is fit, both are depicted engaging in physical activities like running or lifting weights. Around them, smaller icons of gym equipment (dumbbells, jump ropes, etc.) and healthy foods (apples, salads, etc.) are scattered at the edges. Light blue serves as the background color, with black silhouettes and outlines for a bold contrast.
Bold, energetic fonts such as "Impact" for the title "Ditching the Dad Bod," in light blue with a black border to make it stand out. The author's name, Joseph Globe, in a simpler sans-serif font like "Arial," placed at the bottom in black.
The title is large and spans the top third of the cover. The illustration of the two men occupies the middle section, prominently displayed. The author's name is at the bottom, and icons of exercise equipment and healthy food border the entire cover as a decorative frame.
The chosen visual composition effectively highlights the theme of the book by using relatable comic-style characters that middle-aged men can identify with. The use of lighter shades of blue combined with strong black outlines ensures that the cover is vibrant and eye-catching. The bold "Impact" font for the title ensures it stands out for potential readers, while the simpler "Arial" font used for the author’s name maintains a clean and accessible look. By incorporating exercise and healthy food icons around the border, the design conveys the book’s theme in an engaging way, making the content appear both fun and approachable. The matte laminated paper stock not only feels premium but also ensures that the colors and details of the illustrations remain clear and visually appealing without any unwanted shine.
