Description
Experience Level: Entry
Information for the business: It is a very small-run publisher, specialising in philosophy texts.
Industry: Publishing/Journalism
Design details: Hello!
My friend and I are launching a very small-run publishing venture that will specialise in philosophy texts. We have 3-4 books slated for production in the next couple of years.
As such we would like a logo for the company (which is called Bigg Books), as well as 4-6+ cover designs that we can choose for the upcoming books. The covers should all be variations on a theme, so as to be recognisably from the same publisher. Please see below for the sites of various indie publishers that we've taken inspiration from:
http://www.zero-books.net/
http://www.roadbooks.ie/index.php/books/boreen-books
http://visual-editions.com/our-books
http://www.pennedinthemargins.co.uk/
https://www.oberonbooks.com/
http://almabooks.com/
https://www.theredstoneshop.com/
http://www.nottinghilleditions.com/
I feel the similarity of cover design in the first two links builds a really good brand identity - this is what I meant by making the covers a variation on a theme. Furthermore, the aesthetic of all these designs is what we'd be looking for - a simple logo (possibly just good typography), a white (or plain background), some striking colour, etc.
You must have a portfolio for us to view, and any kind of similar work would be great to see. Unfortunately we don't have a huge budget (as you can imagine in the world of philosophy publishing), but we hope this would be a great opportunity for someone to help create from scratch the look of an exciting new publisher! (I am also a professional photographer so can promise to forward on good photos of the books for your own portfolio...)
Many thanks for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to hearing from you!
