How will the blue and orange colour scheme be used?

# data[].attributes.body
We have agreed that the publication cover should have an orange and blue colour scheme. So I have done some research in how other titles/posters have played around with this colour scheme. The contrasting spine of 'the dog' really stands out to me but I also find the contrasting orange poster very intriguing. I've included the picasso piece to see how having a contrasting title can work. 'The Beauty in Breaking' features an almost 'looking in' aspect with the cut out in theoff-centre of the cover, which i find fascinating. Just something to think about :)

Just a few design ideas for the bibliobus to go on the inside of the pages - unsure of whether to use colour or not?

I quite liked how the sea blends into the title and the orange, I also like how the orange doesn't fill up the whole space, in terms of layering and colour palette I just really liked this one :)

if the birds are going to be used in some way on the inside it may be nice to have that connection on the outside of the cover too - potentially could have them wrapping round from the front to the back cover to create that sense of interconnectedness while also including a natural element

I like the idea Scarlett did with the layered skylines, I think if we incorporate the river (like Yoshi posted) leading into it can blend the urban and rural elements together, could illustrate these ourselves maybe incorporating different landmarks from the cities in our publication

I quite like the fluidity of this landscape and it seems to add depth to the image without physically layering decorative elements. Nice style and colours!

I really like the gold foil lettering - we briefly mentioned in seminar and could be cool to include if budget allows!

Incorporates, orange and blue colour schemes with a landscape.

A cover that incorporates a bold blue and orange colour scheme (like in the red solstice) with a striking title as well as both and both rural and urban elements (cityscape, river). It should also reflect the interconnectedness and variety of languages spoken in the cities of lit

Similiar colour schemes - again a landscape

I like how texture is added here - could use similar contour lines to develop the river

Anyhow, this is the illustration I used for the cover. I was thinking we could use a sort of sunrise. Sort of a 'new day' kind of vibes.

Just playing around on indesign. I was trying to fit the words but unfortunately don't have the skills to do so on indesign and therefore ended up placing them as they are.

Here's an example of words in waves, I'm looking for better examples but I leave this one here for now

This cover is using the trees for the title, which we could sort of use as inspiration for our version

I thought it would be a good idea to have a sort of academic look to the publication, taking into consideration that people likely already in the industry or studying English/Publishing will be amongst the first to have access to it.

A Moodboard: Cover Design and some ramblings

Here's a bit of an eclectic mix of inspo for the cover - love the idea of a slightly uncanny and surreal city, one whose lines are blurred and rubbed out: literature passes over borders and boundaries in ways humans can't. A cover as art and as marketing tool - not expecting us to cover the huge amount of content we'll cover in our publication but equally capturing an overarching mood of connectivity, not quite understanding one another and embracing that discomfort! :)

Alternatively I love the simplicity here of A Flat Place - I’m envisioning a portion of a sphere at the bottom of the page with the outline of a single book and person perhaps - or an old fashioned gramaphone.

I particularly love the colours of Tomb Sweeping - joyful in it’s juxtaposition of a morbid title. It’s curious and retro which I love on covers. I appreciate the separate images - perhaps a concept we could include on our cover (but instead of geometric, separated images, we could embrace the shape of Thin Skin, with imagery layered up and blended together, yet also distinguishable by colour, texture or style?) I also love the concept on The End of August cover, with simple but bold colour schemes yet rich imagery. Keeps it cohesive despite clearly dealing with expansive inner matter. As said by Emily Mahon ‘the combination of traditionalism and modernity is really striking.’
