Design Jones

M S Corley has redesigned the covers for the Harry Potter and Lemony Snicket series of books to look like Penguin Classics. I enjoyed both these set of books and have often thought how I would approach the cover design. What I found great about these is the ability to condense the story into such basic elements, any fan would still recognise which books they were without the title being present! These have a very Saul Bass quality to them and make me realise how much movie poster design in particular could learn from this classic approach. You can view the full set HERE.
