Brief

In this assignment you have the opportunity to demonstrate what you have learnt so far into an actual ‘live’ competition brief. Depending on when you arrive at this point, you may or may not be able enter the annual Penguin books student competition. But if it is the case that you are out of sync with the timeframe do not worry, you can enter for a later year. Regardless of this, a range of titles will be posted onto the unit Padlet Professional Practice Padlet, which you can design instead. Alternatively look at the competitions that you explored in the research task.  If you are unsure how to proceed with this, then please contact your tutor, who will provide further guidance.

Once you have completed this, write a brief reflection on your final piece and include it on your learning log.

• Firstly, visit the Penguin Cover Design Award page; this link takes you to the current Penguin Student Awards home page. There you will find three titles that are changed annually. The categories are Adult Fiction, Adult Non Fiction and Children’s Fiction. 
• Review entries from previous years, and read the judges comments and advice. Often the titles will be accompanied by a short video outlining key considerations by art directors and designers. Highlight useful pointers and write up in your learning log.
• Visit bookshops, large and small, new and secondhand; find effective and arresting examples from the three book categories. Document this in your learning log.
• Choose one title which you would like to tackle. Sit back, enjoy and read your chosen book. Also read reviews of the book, from diverse sources, i.e newspapers, journals or Goodreads. 
• Lastly, stick with your chosen book and fully exhaust a broad range of ideas and directions. Your previous exercise and research tasks should help with this. Annotate your iterations and work up a final outcome. Ensure you have fully understood the brief’s requirements (highlight the mandatories and deliverables) and download the provided templates and official logotypes. 

Research and Preparation

Previous winners

To begin this project, I visited the Penguin Cover Design Award website and reviewed the three selected book titles for this year’s competition. These titles fall under the categories of Adult Fiction, Adult Non-Fiction, and Children’s Fiction. By examining past winning entries and reviewing the judges’ comments, I identified key design elements that contribute to an effective and striking book cover.

Bookshop Research

To further develop my understanding of effective book cover design, I visited a local bookshops in our area, focusing on visually compelling covers across the three categories.

• The use of typography
• Colour schemes and contrasts
• Illustration and photographic styles
• Branding and logo placement
• Overall visual impact

Book Selection and Analysis

After reviewing the available titles:

• A Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway
• The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie
• Lady Chatterley’s Lover by DH Lawrence
• Midnight’s Children by Salman Rushdie
• Beloved by Toni Morrison
• Rachel’s Holiday by Marian Keyes
• Killing Floor by Lee Child
• Fifty Shades of Grey by EL James
• Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari
• Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin

I chose one book to focus on for my cover design project. : Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari

The central theme of Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari is the power of shared beliefs and collective imagination in shaping human history. Harari explores how Homo sapiens rose to dominance through cognitive, agricultural, and scientific revolutions, highlighting key themes such as:
The Cognitive Revolution – Around 70,000 years ago, humans developed the ability to create and believe in shared myths, such as gods, nations, and money, which allowed for large-scale cooperation.
The Agricultural Revolution – The shift from foraging to farming led to population growth, societal hierarchies, and economic structures but also increased human suffering due to hard labour and social inequalities.
The Unification of Humankind – Trade, empires, and religions helped unify disparate human groups, forming the foundations of modern civilisations.
The Scientific Revolution – Beginning around 500 years ago, the pursuit of knowledge, driven by capitalism and imperialism, accelerated technological and social changes that continue to shape the modern world.
The Role of Fiction – Harari argues that money, religion, human rights, and even corporations are shared fictions that exist only because people collectively believe in them. (James Clear, no date)

Design Development

Using insights from my research and book analysis, I began generating design concepts.

Sketches

Typography

Colour scheme

Based on the three themes (Classic, Modern & Bold, and Historical & Intellectual) I used Adobe Color to generate corresponding colour palettes. Here are the results:

Chosen colour palette

For my Colour palette for the Sapiens book cover, I wanted a strong and well-balanced choice, reinforcing the book’s themes of history, humanity, and intellectual depth. Here’s why:

1. Historical & Intellectual Depth

• #BF9E60 (Warm Beige) & #8C600D (Golden Brown): These earthy tones evoke ancient manuscripts, aged parchment, and historical artifacts, connecting to the book’s exploration of human history. It provides a timeless feel.

2. Contrast & Readability

• #E9ECF2 (Soft Off-White/Light Gray): A clean and neutral background that ensures readability while maintaining a modern, minimalist touch. It helps the text stand out clearly.

3. Power & Emotion

• #D91604 (Bold Red): Red is a powerful, attention-grabbing colour associated with urgency, passion, and human struggle, perfect for emphasising key elements like the title or author’s name. It aligns with the original cover’s use of red.

4. Depth & Strength

• #732C02 (Deep Brown): A grounding, rich colour that reinforces the earthy, historical tone. It pairs well with the golden and beige tones while offering a strong base for elements like subtitles or key details. (Adobe, 2025)

Final design mock up

Self-reflection

This project was an opportunity to apply my research, design skills, and conceptual thinking to a real-world brief. By following this structured approach, I aimed to create a book cover that is both visually appealing also resonating with the chosen title.

By using of silhouettes showing human evolution walking up a DNA strand, I wanted to symbolise the book’s core theme, how Homo sapiens emerged and evolved. The gradual ascent visually reinforces the idea of progress and development.

The DNA helix made of red molecular connections is to show linking genetics, science, and human history. It suggests that our biological evolution is a foundation for our civilisation.

Feedbacks on my designs

The warm brownish-gold background gives a parchment-like, historical feel, which aligns well with the book’s narrative of human history. The red title is striking and attention-grabbing, just like the original cover. Red conveys urgency and importance, making the title stand out. The choice of brown for the author’s name complements the background and maintains a timeless, intellectual feel.

The serif typeface for “Sapiens” reinforces the book’s historical and academic nature while maintaining a modern feel. The font choice feels authoritative and refined.

The subtitle in a classic serif and the author’s name in a clean sans-serif work well together. The hierarchy is clear, making it easy to read.

The author’s name could be slightly larger or bolder for more impact, ensuring it stands out against the background.

Brief

Ahead of the assignment, this exercise asks you to break down key components that make up a book’s
front cover.

1. Firstly select a title from a book of your own choosing – this can be from any genre, just make
   sure you are very familiar with the narrative. Alternatively choose a classic title from the list
   below:
   Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale (1985)
   Zadie Smith, White Teeth (2000)
   Herman Melville, Moby Dick (1851)
   Philip Pullman, The Golden Compass (1995)
   Mark Haddon, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time (2003)
   Visit: LitCharts or Goodreads, both are excellent resources to get you started.
2. Secondly, having chosen your title and researched into different cover editions, question whether there are key conceptual motifs being used over and over again within different cover treatments? Can you identify more expressive versions of the covers? Check the date of each version and try to speculate about the historical, political or social context for each one. (Don’t spend long on this but it’s important to realise that creative design doesn’t happen in a vacuum.)
   
3. Using one of the main motifs you have identified (such as the uniforms that feature in the
   Handmaid’s Tale), the title of the book, author’s name, and no more than three colours (including black and white), generate as many different layouts of the cover design as you can.
   Think about how you can dynamically layer, organise, frame, clash, or balance these elements. Work quickly and come up with lots of different visual possibilities. Aim to generate quick design possibilities by arranging your typography, motif and colours in as many, and as varied, ways as possible.
   
4. Lastly use thumbnail drawings or DTP layouts to achieve at least ten fundamentally different layouts. From this, select one that you think works best and write a brief rationale for your choice. This is a warm up exercise that will help you with your approach to designing a cover for assignment six.

1. Identifying Expressive Covers & Their Context: Handmaid’s Tale’s

1. 1985 First Edition (McClelland & Stewart – Canada)
   • Design: Muted tones, featuring a cloaked woman walking along a high brick wall.
   • Context: Reflects the book’s dystopian world subtly rather than explicitly. The restrained design aligns with 1980s literary cover trends, which often avoided literal imagery.
2. 1998 Vintage Classics Edition
   • Design: A bolder image of a woman in the iconic red cloak, facing away.
   • Context: The late ‘90s saw increasing feminist discourse and interest in dystopian fiction (The Matrix, Fight Club era). This cover highlights individual oppression.
3. 2017 TV Tie-in Edition
   • Design: A photographic close-up of a handmaid, emphasizing red and white with stark contrast.
   • Context: Released during the rise of the #MeToo movement and political discussions about women’s rights, this cover was designed for maximum impact and recognition.

(Penguin shop, 2025)

2. Identifying Key Motifs & Colour Palette

Common motifs found across multiple covers:

• Red Cloak & White Bonnet – Represents control, submission, and the stripping of identity.
• The Eye Symbol – Tied to surveillance and the oppressive regime (“Under His Eye”).
• Silhouetted or Faceless Women – Emphasises loss of identity and autonomy.

Chosen Colour Palette (3 Colors Total):
Red – Symbolising power, blood, oppression.
White – Purity, control, absence of identity.
Black – Darkness, restriction, dystopian oppression.

3. Generating Layouts

4. Selecting the Best Layout

• Why this layout? It captures the book’s themes best.
• How does the motif enhance the message?
• Why do the colours work well?

This design features a simple white bonnet on a black and red background with no visible face. The lack of detail mirrors the stripping of identity in Gilead. The title placed at the top right, justified right in distressed white text, appears “caged in,” reinforcing the feeling of entrapment. The limited colour palette ensures the cover is visually striking while maintaining deep thematic significance.

Self – reflection

I found this task really enjoyable and a great way to prepare for Assignment 6. It highlights how simple elements can be transformed into more intricate and visually compelling designs, inspiring new ideas that can be developed further. Choosing a single motif or main motif is especially effective, as it helps create a unified design that ties together the front cover, spine, and back of the book cover seamlessly.

Brief

For this assignment you will design (or redesign) a game. You can select a board game, card game, app or a video game. First you will research existing games, board games, card games, puzzles, apps and video games.

Select one that interests you and find out about the history, the gameplay, the iterations, and if applicable the different versions and themes or re-designs throughout time. For example, a classic game like Monopoly has been designed and redesigned numerous times. 

Analyse and deconstruct the design. For example:

• How do all the pieces/screens fit together? What are the game dynamics that need to be taken into account?
• What is the underlying structure of the layout? How are the elements organised? Is there a grid?
• How are symbols used? What do the symbols represent? For example,  icons, pawns, point indicators or progress through the game?
• Check out The Board Game Design Lab articles about game design theory

Draft your own interpretation of the game. You can decide if you want to keep the rules and gameplay the same or if you wish to re-invent the rules of the game. 

Define your target audience. The game could be suited to any target audience. Include the demographic and psychographic characteristics of the people you think would purchase the game. In other words, identify who you are designing for.

Build a prototype to refine your ideas. For a board game or card game this means making the actual physical pieces at the actual scale. For an app or video game you need to mock-up multiple screens to show the user interface and the different states. Where possible use the appropriate software, for example Figma or AdobeXD, to prototype the interaction and show how users progress through the game.

Refine, refine, refine. Apply all the techniques you have learned to improve upon the early design. Take a step back and practice self-critique, ask for feedback from your peers or the wider community, test your design whenever possible. Try using questionnaires, surveys, interviews or focus groups. (Refer back to the information on questionnaires earlier in the project). At a minimum you should aim for three refinement cycles.

Design the final working prototype in preparation to pitch to a manufacturer. Since the game will need to be manufactured, you need to consider what manufacturer would be best suited for the game you are designing

Prepare a pitch presentation directed to a manufacturer appropriate for your game. Manufacturers of games, much like book publishers, will have a niche they cater to. Global manufacturers like Parker Brothers and Ubisoft will manufacture mass-market games like Monopoly and Just Dance, while a specialised manufacturer might focus exclusively on children’s games, for example Orchard Toys, or they may find a niche like ‘German-style board games’  (e.g. Days of Wonder) or virtual reality and augmented reality (e.g. The NineHertz) to cater to.

Analysis of Dobble

1. History & Evolution

Dobble, known as Spot It! in some regions, was designed by French mathematician Denis Blanchot and later published by Asmodee. The game is based on set theory and a mathematical principle where every pair of cards shares exactly one common symbol. It has been adapted into multiple themed editions (Harry Potter Dobble, Marvel Dobble) and digital versions.

2. Gameplay & Design Elements

• Objective: Identify the matching symbol between two cards before your opponents.
• Components:
  • 55 circular cards, each containing 8 symbols.
  • Symbols vary in size and orientation to increase difficulty.
  • Simple icon-based design for accessibility.
• Turn Structure:
  1. Two cards are compared at a time.
  2. Players race to find the matching symbol.
  3. The first player to call out the match wins the round.
  4. The game continues until a win condition is met (e.g., most cards collected).

3. Game Dynamics & Structure

• Core Mechanic: Pattern recognition and reaction speed.
• Player Interaction: Fast-paced, competitive play with minimal downtime.
• Scalability: Works with 2-8 players, making it versatile.
• Win Condition: Depends on the game mode, but generally, the player with the most correct matches wins.

4. Game Mechanics & Visual Design

• Circular Cards: Unique format avoids traditional card orientations and increases challenge.
• Symbol Design:
  • Bright, colourful, and high-contrast icons for visibility.
  • Randomised placement ensures varied gameplay.
• Mathematical Structure: Each pair of cards always shares exactly one symbol, thanks to combinatorial design principles.

Dobble card game demographics

The Dobble (Spot It!) card game has a broad demographic appeal due to its simplicity, fast-paced nature, and adaptability. Here’s a breakdown of its key demographics:

1. Age Group

• Primary Audience: 6+ years old (officially recommended for ages 6 and up)
• Younger Players: Some versions cater to kids as young as 3 years old (e.g., Dobble Kids).
• Older Players & Adults: The game’s speed and pattern recognition challenges make it fun for teens and adults, often played in party or casual settings.

2. Target Market

• Families: Ideal for family game nights due to its easy-to-learn rules and quick playtime.
• Casual Gamers: Great for non-gamers who enjoy light, social games.
• Educational Use: Used in classrooms to enhance cognitive skills, attention, and reflexes.
• Party & Social Settings: Popular in bar games, icebreakers, and group gatherings.

3. Cognitive & Learning Appeal

• Children: Helps with visual perception, quick thinking, and memory.
• Seniors: Used in cognitive exercises for hand-eye coordination and brain training.

4. Global Popularity

• Available in multiple languages and localised editions (e.g., Dobble Harry Potter, Dobble Disney).
• Universally appealing due to simple symbols, no complex reading required.

Self-reflection

This assignment challenged me to critically analyse and redesign a game while considering its history, mechanics, and user experience. Through this process, I gained valuable insights into game design principles, user engagement strategies, and the importance of iterative refinement.

I started by researching different types of games, eventually selecting dobble it is one of my son’s favourite games and I played it a lot. Learning about its history, gameplay mechanics, and past redesigns helped me understand how games evolve over time. Analysing its structure, from layout and symbols to game dynamics, allowed me to see what elements worked well and what could be improved.

My redesign aimed to challenge the game also include maths. I carefully considered the target audience, focusing on primary school children, ensuring that my changes aligned with their preferences and expectations.

I conducted multiple feedback sessions, gathering insights from my son and her friends also my daughter and my husband, who are older but still enjoyed playing the game.

Developing a final prototype ready for manufacturing required considering materials, production costs, or digital development tools. I also researched potential manufacturers, as a suitable partner due to their focus on producing card games in the UK.

Creating the pitch presentation was another learning experience, as I had to articulate my vision persuasively while considering marketability. This process enhanced my ability to present ideas professionally and strategically.

Overall, this assignment deepened my appreciation for game design and provided me with valuable skills in research, design thinking, and user experience testing.

Brief

Start with primary research exploring existing labels. Pick up and hold a variety of beverage containers in your hand. Compare what it feels like to read the information on a milk bottle, which will often have a handle and be more square versus a wine bottle that is round, but the label will often be on one side of the bottle versus picking up a round squash or juice bottle that has a label wrapped all around. To fully understand the subtle difference you need to pick up and hold each of these bottles in your hands. Looking at flat two-dimensional photos doesn’t allow you the full experience. Jot down your observations in your learning log. For each bottle you picked up:
How did you hold the bottle?
What information from the label did you see first?
What did it take to find the name of the beverage? The ingredients? The nutritional information?
The safety warnings (e.g alcohol consumption limits), if any?
Compare the usability of the bottles – which one made it easiest to access the relevant information? Which one best promoted the product? Which one gave the best tactile experience?

Design a label for a beverage of your choice.

You can select an existing product, for example the iconic Coca Cola bottle or you can make up your own product. In both cases, clearly define the target audience and explain how your design satisfies the needs of this audience:
Who is the beverage for? E.g. is it for children with tiny hands and parents concerned about sugar content or for rare wine enthusiasts?
Where and how do they drink the beverage? E.g. do they drink directly from the bottle with a sport-top or is the beverage poured into a vessel?
What information does the label need to include? E.g. is there legal or regulatory information, the price and UPC code, does the label include text and imagery?

Primary Research and Observations on Beverage Containers

1. Milk Bottle (Handle, Square Shape):

• How I Held the Bottle: By the handle, using one hand to grip securely.
• Information Seen First: The product name and brand were prominent near the top, with nutritional information in a smaller font on the side.
• Ease of Finding Information: The name was instantly visible, while the ingredients and nutritional details required turning the bottle to the side.
• Usability: The handle made it easy to hold, but accessing complete information required rotating the bottle.

2. Wine Bottle (Round Shape, Label on One Side):

• How I Held the Bottle: Grasped the neck with one hand or cradled the body for a better look.
• Information Seen First: The brand name and type of wine were centered and prominent on the front label.
• Ease of Finding Information: The alcohol content and warnings were located at the back, requiring a flip of the bottle.
• Usability: The single-sided label prioritized aesthetics over usability but effectively communicated the premium nature of the product.

3. Juice Bottle (Round, Wrap-Around Label):

• How I Held the Bottle: Held by the body, with a full grip for stability.
• Information Seen First: The bright imagery and product name stood out due to the wrap-around design.
• Ease of Finding Information: The ingredients and nutritional facts were located to the side, necessitating a rotation of the bottle.
• Usability: The wrap-around label maximized space for information but required effort to locate specific details.

Comparative Usability and Design Features

• Easiest to Access Information: The milk bottle, due to its handle and clear organisation.
• Best Promotion of the Product: The wine bottle, with its minimalistic design and focus on branding.
• Best Tactile Experience: The juice bottle, as the rounded shape and full wrap-around label created a vibrant, engaging feel.

Self-reflection

Engaging in this hands-on research made me realise how much of an impact packaging design has on usability and consumer interaction. Initially, I thought labels were mostly about branding, but through physically handling different bottles, I recognised how label placement, bottle shape, and tactile experience all contribute to how easily information is accessed.

One of the key takeaways from this exercise was how instinctively I held each bottle and how that influenced what I noticed first. With the milk bottle, my hand naturally went to the handle, meaning I saw the front label first, but had to rotate the bottle to find details like ingredients. In contrast, the wine bottle, with its sleek, round shape, was more about elegance, but not as practical when searching for specific information. The juice bottle, with its wrap-around label, had everything in one place, but required more effort to locate specific details.

I also became more aware of how bottle design affects the overall experience. A bottle’s shape determines how easily someone can grip it, which in turn influences how effortlessly they can read the label. The wine bottle, for example, felt premium and sophisticated, but it wasn’t as user-friendly as the milk bottle, which was designed for practicality. The juice bottle was visually appealing but somewhat frustrating when I had to rotate it multiple times to find key information.

This exercise also made me reflect on my own assumptions about design. Before this, I hadn’t considered how small changes, like a textured label for grip or a strategic label placement, could enhance user experience. I realized that good design isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about functionality and how people interact with a product in real life.

For my design, I aimed to create a beverage bottle label that is both visually appealing and functional. Choosing Evian as my brand, I ensured that the visual elements aligned with its identity. My colour palette focused on natural and refreshing tones to reflect the brand’s essence. To add a personal, unique, and casual touch, I incorporated a handwritten typeface for the logo. I also included essential details such as a barcode, nutritional information, the product name, and a slogan. Throughout the design process, I kept the target audience in mind, ensuring the label would resonate with them.

Through this process, I’ve gained a deeper appreciation for the relationship between form and function. Going forward, I’ll be more mindful of how usability plays a role in design choices, ensuring that labels are not only visually effective but also practical for consumers in different contexts.
