First Redesign
Redesign Concepts
The first redesign uses the concept on the left. The goal was to modernize the original cover so that new audiences would be tempted to pick it up. The re-imagination of the new redesign was to push myself to do the concept on the right. I was able to create a more dynamic composition, improve my typography and color systems.
