Illustrative Non-Fiction Book Cover

I’m ready to give my upcoming non-fiction title a cover that instantly communicates credibility and draws the reader in. The tone is informative yet approachable, and I’d like the artwork to be fully illustrative rather than photographic or purely typographic.

Here’s what I have so far: a working subtitle, back-cover blurb, and author photo. I’m counting on you to translate that content into a striking front, spine, and back design that works both for print (KDP trade paperback) and digital storefront thumbnails. Color palette, typography, and illustration style are up to your creative direction—as long as it feels modern, clean, and professional.

Deliverables
• Print-ready PDF (front, spine, back + bleed)
• High-resolution JPEG/PNG for ebook listings
• Layered source file (PSD, AI, or equivalent) for future edits

To help you start quickly, I’ll supply exact trim size, page count, and barcode area once we begin. Let’s craft a cover that makes this non-fiction project stand out on the shelf and online.
