Design Concept
A cinematic portrayal of a vast, threatening flood overtaking a yellow rose field transformed into a dark, tumultuous lake. Scattered rose tops break through the water, glowing faintly golden. In the mid-distance, a determined Black woman runs toward the viewer through knee-deep floodwaters, her motion dynamic and creating splashes. Her soaked white sundress clings to her form, rippling in the wind. Behind her looms a massive storm filled with heavy charcoal and purple clouds, split by streaking lightning. A dramatic transition from darkness to light occurs, with golden illumination framing her as she moves toward a hopeful foreground, casting a warm halo around her figure. The reflection of light and storm merges on the stormy water, amplifying the emotional impact.
Serifed font for the book title "Back to Beautiful," with an elegant yet slightly weathered texture, evoking balance between struggle and triumph. Positioned in a well-lit area on the water, the color is a shimmering gold with subtle gradients. The author’s name, "Lana Turner," is in a clean, sans-serif font, placed at the bottom, smaller in scale, and in a muted white to complement the stormy atmosphere without overpowering.
The title sits prominently near the top third of the cover where contrasting light and dark provide clarity. The woman’s figure is central, dynamic, and framed within the beam of warm light. The author’s name is subtle and located at the base of the image. The storm forms the backdrop, with its furious energy balanced against the serenity of the golden-lit foreground. The bottom of the scene holds the scattered yellow roses breaking through the floodwaters, guiding the viewer’s eye upward.
This design aims to evoke raw emotion and inspire hope in the viewer. The storm represents overwhelming trauma, while the woman moving toward the light symbolizes triumph, surrender, and peace. By placing her figure in the center with flowing motion, we emphasize her determination and vulnerability amid overwhelming odds. The use of cinematic light and water reflections adds depth, drawing attention to her journey. The typography strikes a balance between expressing the story’s gravity and ensuring readability; the serifed title font signifies timelessness and emotional weight, while the sans-serif font for the author underscores simplicity. Finally, the materials—a combination of matte and spot gloss—enhance realism, creating a striking physical presence that reflects the story's intensity.
