Name of the Wind Dust Jacket
For this project, I was tasked with creating a dust jacket for the book “Name of the Wind”. The cover of the dust jacket had to include hand lettering. This book falls in the fantasy genre, so there is a lot of magic and mystery involved.
To embody that in the cover, I used the cool color palette to keep the feeling of mystery. As far as the lettering, I sketched out the lettering on paper before tracing it in Adobe Illustrator. I opted for a flowing font that is consistent with the theme of the book. Also included is a blue flame in the tittle of the “i” which is a motif in the story. To see what the product would look like in real life, I had the design measured, printed, and mocked up on the book itself.
