FRANKENSTEIN BOOK RE-DESIGN
PROBLEM
Design a cover that resonates with younger audiences for the novel, "Frankenstein" by Mary Shelley, effectively capturing the essence of the story through visual elements.
SOLUTION
Frankenstein is a well-known novel encompassing science, the supernatural, and the human condition. This book cover redesign was created with the original plot of the story in mind while putting a gory and fanciful twist on the visuals. The striking illustration of Frankenstein’s monster on the cover vividly encapsulates the essence of the story, offering new or younger readers a clear glimpse into its themes. The choice of the script font, P22 Cezzane Pro, aims to evoke emotions of nostalgia, romance, and whimsy, adding depth and intrigue to the title while leaving viewers room for interpretation. The deliberate use of a less readable title encourages viewers to rely on the illustrations, colors, and graphic elements to grasp the story's plot and atmosphere. The graphic element of the red lightning bolt/human vein symbolizes the book's dual
nature—scientific exploration intertwined with inherent human themes, further enhancing the cover thematic depth.
