Book Cover



When Broken Glass Floats


I think the book cover does match the story. If the school doesn't give me this as an option, I would never read this book base on the cover because I'm the type of person who judges a book base on their cover. There's two version of the book cover. I personally prefers the second one because I think the first one, the front doesn't match the overall theme or feeling that the cover gives.

5 Book Cover:
The Morning Hour
I like the repeating circle with different sizes. I also like how simple the design is and the gold outline around the tag.  

The Future of an Illusion
I like the different shade of green there is and the repeating triangle and square. I also like the bottom 1/3 is dark green. (the contrast of different shades of green) 
Conspicuous Consumption
I like the pattern in the background. However, the pattern is not the focal point, readers are able to see the title.
Radi Os
I like the background and the colors. I think light colors are pretty. The background looks like a water painting itself.
Of Empire
I like the blue background. I think the pattern is interesting. I really like the combination of white and light blue.

Common: All 5 book covers have some kind of pattern in the background. 

Competition Design


Brainstorm 
Draft
Final
I chooses to have the phoenix because it represents Millenium. I also chooses to have windows for MHS because our school is located on a tall building. Everything is align in the center because i think is a lot easier for students to look at. The color of the design is red and black because our school color is red and black. It represents MHS. There's repetition of the windows in word "MHS".
