The Brief

Book description

We live in a world that is obsessed with the best presentation of ourselves. We have filters for photos, editing for videos, Spanx for bodies, makeup for faces and software for singing. All of these lead to a presentation of a fake view of who we really are. But our real power is in the presentation of our true and authentic self. It is in our UGLY presentation of ourselves that we deliver our most powerful and impactful voice. The UGLY Advantage is about the rise of authenticity. It is how to release your true impact into the world by not just getting comfortable with your true self, but by learning to embrace and love your flaws. For it is those that make you unique. Learn about the 4 elements to building your UGLY voice and the 4 impacts and live your powerful truth.

Target audience

Young and old alike can benefit from this. It is a book for anyone that is trying to find who they really are and want to leverage that to build a business, brand or platform to impact the world.

Book cover for “100 Minutes with God” by Susan Grant

Book cover for “100 Minutes with God” by Susan Grant

Since this is a devotion book for those who want to deepen their relationship with God in the middle of their hectic lives, the author requested a design that could capture the essence of time and of spiritual reflection. For that, I included the image of a pocket watch, similar to the one that was being used as a chapter symbol in the interior of the book. This way there is always a consistent theme and imagery in the entire book (in the inner and outer zones). I also wanted to represent the “start of a new day”, not only in a sense of time but also as a new opportunity to be with God, that can be achieved despite the busy life. The rising sun was a good way to transmit that message and also to give it that “eternal” sense (the sun rises everyday… no matter what). It also helps to give a very positive feeling to the entire design, as being a joyful invitation to join in these daily 100 Minutes of reflection.

Book cover for “Rummet innanför” by Anna Karlsson

Book cover for “Rummet innanför” by Anna Karlsson

“Rummet innanför” (translated from Swedish "The room inside") is the sequel of “Inte som du tror”, which book cover I had previously designed. Some events and details on the story led to the choice of the elements in the design. The main characters — Bella, Miranda and Erik — are on summer holiday. Bella is searching for answers about her family's history, after finding a revealing picture. Miranda is haunted by memories from a fire at her school. Erik is working at a soccer school for kids. As requested, the main scenario needed to also include a mansion, as well as a sports car. As in many books which target audience are teens, it was important to give some clues but without revealing too much of the plot. I followed the same style of the first book, as well as the placement of the characters and background effects. However, to better distinguish both books, I used a different color scheme with fresh tones to make the connection with summer season.
