Book Designs in Context

It was important to see how the books would appear side by side and to a three dimensional capacity. So I printed the covers and placed them on books to give an idea.

These went fairly well but again it becomes clear that the colours are not cohesive and need altering in order to become a set. The designs also looks fairly flat due to the vectorised images and simple use of plain white. The introduction of simple shapes on the page was done to create a contrast, such as the hearts on the figures or the circle on the raven. Although this does create a more exciting difference it still can be seen as too 'easy' and doesn't look considered. These need work in order to be designs that reflect the principles I have learnt.
