BOOK COVER SERIES

BOOK DESIGN 2025

This series of redesigned book covers reimagines three psychological thrillers by Patricia Highsmith—Strangers on a Train, The Talented Mr. Ripley, and The Price of Saltthrough a cohesive visual language centered on tension, identity, and psychological duality. The goal was to create a unified set that feels distinct yet interconnected, echoing the shared psychological intensity across the three novels.

This series was developed through an image-led process combining photography, collage, and print-based experimentation. Most of the imagery was originally shot by me, then physically manipulated through cutting, layering, and compositing. Each cover was loosely constructed around the central themes of its respective book, using fragmented imagery. Typography was treated with restraint to create controlled tension between order and fragmentation.
