Placing the protagonists in the foreground under a streetlamp not only draws attention but also enhances the intensity and intimacy of the cover. Bold, sans-serif typography with a metallic sheen adds a modern touch while maintaining readability and impact, crucial for dystopian and noir genres. The layout ensures a clear visual hierarchy, guiding the reader’s gaze naturally from the title to the characters and subsequently to the author's name. Using matte paper with spot gloss emphasizes important areas of the cover, adding depth and tactile interest without overwhelming the design with excessive glossiness. This all culminates in a compelling and unique cover that encapsulates the intense, futuristic journey within the genre.
