I was contacted by Hodder & Stoughton Limited a London - based publishing company to produce a delicate and attractive book cover for their new book. It was a big challenging as I have never done a book cover before, but this idea have been in my head for a long time ago.
The book cover is all developed in paper, with flat pieces glue to the back in different layers and also some volumetric objects to give it contrast. There was a lot of detail involve but very satisfying to see how a digital design turn out really well in paper.
