Print book cover design / Digital book cover design
Book cover design for a qualified behavioural psychologist, author, speaker and educator.
Author David Jefferies reached out to Squark Design after seeing a book cover we had created for a another client. He was preparing to publish his first book and needed a professional, eye-catching book cover design for both paperback and online formats. Something that would do justice to the story he had worked so hard to tell.
David wanted a designer who would take the time to understand the heart of the book, not just its title.
It was a real honour to be trusted with the manuscript ahead of publication. Reading the book first meant we could connect with the tone, themes and target audience before beginning the design process.
From there, we created three distinct cover concepts, carefully crafted to reflect the essence of the story. When we sent the proofs to David, his response said it all:
“All I can say is wow! They are superb. I am going to have a tough choice deciding.”
After reviewing the options, David selected his favourite design. A few final tweaks were made to ensure everything felt just right, and the final artwork was delivered to the publisher.
David was thrilled with the finished design, a cover that reflects his voice as an author and helps his work stand out on both shelves and digital platforms. The process was collaborative, creative and respectful of the story he had spent so long crafting.
It’s always a pleasure to support writers in bringing their books to life, and this project was no exception.
“Squark (Michelle) designed my book cover, nothing was too much trouble. The final design was exactly what I imagined, actually, no – it was so much better than what I had in mind. It’s like she knew my thoughts better than me. Superb service!”
