Design Concept
A minimalistic animated design featuring a solitary animated teenage figure sitting under an old, leafless tree on a vast and empty plain. The background is in varying shades of soft beige (krem), creating a melancholic, dreamy atmosphere. The figure is drawn in a delicate, sketchy style, with downcast eyes and an air of loneliness, emphasized by the absence of other elements in the scene. Gentle gradients in krem hues are used to create an aesthetic yet muted emotion of sadness.
The book title is written in a hand-lettered script style with subtle curves, imparting an emotional and personal touch. “ENDSET” is set in a bold sans-serif font, all uppercase, to contrast and provide balance to the delicate title. The fonts are softly textured to blend harmoniously with the visual emotion of the cover.
The teenager sits at the lower third of the cover, slightly off-center, beneath the title. The bare tree spreads its branches to frame the upper part of the scene. The title “CERPEN PEMBANGUN JIWA” is placed prominently in the middle-top section above the figure, while the author’s name “ENDSET” is written at the bottom right corner in smaller, solid typography. The remaining space is purposefully left blank to enhance the sense of emptiness and sadness.
The visual composition represents the emotional core of the book. A lone teenager under a bare tree visually conveys isolation and introspection, aligning well with the book's somber short stories theme. The soft beige (krem) palette gives the design an aesthetic minimalism, resonating with the delicate nature of the feelings explored in the book. Typography was chosen to balance the emotional tone—script fonts for the uplift in emotions, and a bold sans-serif to ensure clear branding with the author’s name. The matte finish paper adds tactility for readers, which complements the meditative and introspective mood evoked by the cover. The overall design draws readers in with its curated aesthetics while representing deep, sad, and personal undertones.
