Hot off the Melody Press

Designer, Artist, Craftsman

These are a typographic series of book cover re-designs created by my proposed publishing company, Melody Press. I kept the covers free of imagery to portray a synopsis of each book through the type of the title. I chose to redesign the books, “The Devil Knows You’re Dead” by Lawrence Block, “Into the Wild” by Jon Krakauer, and “Nausea” by Jean-Paul Sartre, and I highly recommend all three. All subheadings and block texts are set in Minion Pro.

Hey, have you seen this news article?
New details about Michael Jackson’s Death Emerge
I was wondering if you were going to blog about this…

@ Michael, No I haven’t actually, Mr. Spammer. But no I probably will not blog about this, although I was considering making a commemorative MJ print, but I’ll probably just write a parody riff instead!
