Original Book Cover For
Visual Composition:

A vibrant red brick wall takes up the entire background. On the wall, a large graffiti-style rose is painted in vivid, layered hues of red and pink, with faint streaks of green for the stem. The girl with brown skin and curly hair, dressed in a casual yet trendy outfit, stands on the left side of the cover with a playful expression, slightly tilting her head towards the boy. The boy stands next to her with his arm resting on the wall; the St. Christopher tattoo on his arm is clearly visible. Their body language is relaxed yet magnetic, symbolizing intimacy and playful desire. Lighting is soft and warm, with a slight golden glow to amplify the romance.

Design Typography:

The title, "Roses in Harlem," is in bold, hand-drawn script with a graffiti-like texture, in white to stand out against the red background. Author name "Ameya J. Wright" is in a smaller, clean sans-serif font located at the bottom of the cover in black.

Design Layout:

The characters are positioned slightly off-center to the right, taking up around one-third of the visual space. The graffiti rose occupies the top left corner but extends enough to fade into the wall background. The book title arcs slightly above the graffiti, while the author’s name remains at the bottom center. Negative space around the figures keeps the design clean.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition combines urban charm and romance, blending the gritty texture of the brick wall with the vibrant beauty of a graffiti rose. This style sets the tone for a city romance narrative. The warm, soft lighting intensifies the feeling of intimacy and desire, aligning with the genre. Typography choice reflects contemporary romance the graffiti-font title adds a playful, youthful appeal, while the clean font for the author name keeps it polished. The layout ensures no element overpowers the characters or setting while keeping the focus on the emotional connection between them. The tactile matte finish gives the cover a modern touch, while spot gloss subtly draws attention to key design elements, making the cover memorable.
