Cover Design Service

cover design solutions for print and digital media

We design covers (front, back and spine) for books that are attractive,  professional but also affordable, with both print and digital media considerations in mind. Our Cover Design solutions come in two basic packages – Template-based and Bespoke editions.

Template-based Book Cover Design

Once you have approved the finished design, it is outputted to a print-ready proof for you, which includes printers' crop marks and bleeds, spine width calculated on the basis of page count, paper stock, etc.

These represent a simple, attractive but also very affordable solution, suitable for both print and e-book editions. You provide the basic elements – blurb, author bio, illustrations, etc – we create a customised design based on your specifications in terms of choice of colours, fonts, etc.

Template designs are suitable for all printing and binding options. They can also be adapted for your e-book edition, other publication formats (e.g. a hardcover option to complement soft cover or paperback).

Check out these template designs. They come in four basic formats:

1. No Cover Illustration

2. Front Cover Illustration Inset

3. Full Front Cover Illustration

4. Wraparound Cover Illustration

Bespoke Book Cover Design Service

With a bespoke cover design, we create a completely original cover concept for your book. This involves originating and/or sourcing artwork that best represents the theme, purpose, genre, style of your publication, as well as appealing to your target or intended audience. We work with you in this endeavour, giving you full creative control and final say in the end result.

The rates which we charge for bespoke designs are generally more expensive than for designs based on templates. The higher cost reflects the greater complexity, as well as potential charges in relation to copyright, reproduction, other fees.
