Original Book Cover For
Visual Composition:

A dark and eerie forest with twisted and gnarled trees. In the foreground, there is a young adult protagonist with fear in their eyes, holding an apple that emits an ominous glow.

Design Typography:

Bold and jagged font for the title "Sea of Apples" to create a sense of mystery and tension. The author's name "A Sharp" is written in a more elegant and curvy font to provide contrast.

Design Layout:

The title is placed at the top of the cover, slightly tilted to add dynamism. The protagonist is positioned at the bottom, with the author's name placed horizontally beneath the title. The apple is strategically placed to draw the viewer's attention.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The dark and eerie forest setting, along with the twisted trees, creates a visually striking and atmospheric cover that immediately conveys the thriller and mystery genre. The protagonist's fear and the glowing apple hint at the suspenseful and chilling elements of the story. The bold and jagged font for the title adds to the sense of tension, while the elegant font for the author's name provides a contrast and adds a touch of sophistication. The placement of the elements and the tilted title add dynamism and visual interest to the cover. The choice of matte finish for the cover material enhances the dark and mysterious atmosphere, giving the book a tactile and engaging appeal.
