Assignment: To design book covers for some of the following titles:
Love, Creativity in Industry, Economics of Retail, Marital Breakdown, The Scientific Analysis of Personality, Organization, Transportation Economics, Aging, etc..
Design: This was a fun assignment because it allowed us to have free range with our imaginations. We had to find a way to convey the concept without using something too cliché. Then again, some of the most cliché images we think of are some of the most accurate, so we had to find a good balance.
I decided to try something with the Male/Female restroom symbols because they were a universal image. Everyone understands what each represents and I went from there. This concept is used again in my Marital Breakdown cover.
