Romance Romance Book Cover Design (Featuring silhouette, sky, and light)

Visuals: A backdrop of a softly blurred urban skyline at night with glowing yellow and white apartment windows. In the foreground, the silhouette of two figures sitting on adjacent elevated balconies looking towards each other, separated by subtle negative space. A small glow from one balcony, hinting at a warm ambient light like a candle or soft lamp. The sky transitions to a poetic, deep navy gradient with faint abstract swirls symbolizing dreams and connections.

Typography: The title "Lingering Nights" is written in a modern serif typeface with poetic, elegant curves, softly italicized; the author’s name, גנא עויסאת, appears in a clean and minimalist sans-serif typeface below the title, aligned to the right.

Layout: The title is positioned in the upper third of the cover, prominent but tastefully balanced. The skyline and character silhouettes take up the lower two-thirds, creating a sense of depth and verticality. The author's name is placed in the bottom corners for balance, ensuring readability.

Explanation: The visual composition emphasizes an urban romantic setting while maintaining the poetic atmosphere expected from a contemporary romance. The silhouette concept adds abstraction, allowing the reader to imagine themselves or the characters in the story. The typography balances emotional depth and the sleek modernity of city romance through the combination of elegant serif and minimal sans-serif fonts. The layout creates a hierarchy that draws attention to the title while grounding the design with the skyline and separated figures evoking distance but connection. The soft-touch matte paper ensures a premium feel, enhancing the book handling experience, while the embossed figures and spot UV gloss on the title add an engaging tactile dimension, making the design memorable and alluring.
