Signal the book’s promise clearly
We explore the theme, audience and genre expectations before choosing the cover direction. Typography and imagery work together to express the book’s character, with the title remaining clear at both full and thumbnail sizes.
Prepare the final publishing dimensions
Digital covers and print wraps require different specifications. Spine width, trim size and back-cover copy depend on the final publication details, which are confirmed before the production artwork is released.

Understand the promise
We agree the priorities using your brief and source material. For this project, the first decision is how to understand the promise.
Explore the direction
You review a concrete direction before we move into final production. Together, we explore the direction.
Refine for the shelf
The final stage is to refine for the shelf, resolve the agreed feedback and prepare the handover.
Before
we begin.
Can you create a print version as well?
Yes, when included in scope. We need the final trim size, page count and printer template to prepare the wrap.
How are scope, timing and revisions agreed?
We review your ebook cover design brief and source material first. The proposal sets out deliverables, milestones and revision stages before work begins.
Which files will I receive?
The proposal specifies final export formats, dimensions and any editable source files. Print artwork follows the agreed supplier specifications; digital versions are prepared for their intended placements. Licensed fonts and third-party assets are identified where relevant.
How are feedback and approvals handled?
We agree the direction and review stages before production. Consolidated feedback at each stage keeps decisions clear; final artwork is released after the approved copy, dimensions and requested variations have been checked.
