Original studio concept

When Morning Finds Us

Design by Publishing Core Studio

Original studio concept — not a published client title.

An opening made with colour and light.

The title and cover are a studio design exercise, not a client manuscript or publication record.

Discuss Your Cover

Original studio brief

The idea behind the cover.

A studio study of a lyrical cover direction. A rising sun, simple stems and open typography explore warmth and possibility. The title is created for this design demonstration and is not a published title in our catalogue.

A closer look

The thinking
in the artwork.

A broad pale sun meets a dark plum field, with two original botanical silhouettes extending across the horizon. Soft pink lettering links the upper and lower colour fields. The limited palette allows the silhouette and the title to carry equal weight.
