Classic Non-Fiction Cover Needed
Budget: $2 – $8 USD
I’m getting ready to release a non-fiction book and need a polished, classic-style cover that lets the title and subtitle shine—nothing more, nothing less. Think timeless typography, balanced spacing, and an elegant layout that would look at home on a traditional bookstore shelf.
What I’m looking for
• Classic design aesthetic—serif fonts, refined color palette, and understated sophistication.
• Text-only focus—please do not add images, illustrations, or author photos. The design should rely solely on strong type hierarchy and subtle graphic accents.
• Front cover at minimum; if you want to show spine and back mock-ups for context, feel free, but the judging will center on the front.
• Final deliverables: print-ready PDF (300 dpi CMYK), hi-res JPEG for online use, and the editable source file (AI, PSD, or InDesign).
I’ll choose the winning submission based on readability, visual impact, and how well it conveys a trusted, authoritative tone for non-fiction readers. Good luck, and I look forward to seeing your classic interpretations!
