Book Cover Design — Thriller, Crime & Children's Concepts
Kelly Bain
BOOK COVER DESIGN — Genre-led concept collection
A collection of self-initiated cover concepts exploring the visual language of psychological thrillers, crime fiction and children's stories. Titles and author names are illustrative portfolio examples.
My role: concept development, AI art direction and visual design.
Thriller direction
Cinematic lighting, restrained colour palettes and large title typography create tension and make the genre immediately recognisable.
Children's direction
Expressive characters, bright colour and friendly typography create a warmer, story-led first impression.
Deliverables shown
Cover presentation mockups for creative review. These demonstrate visual direction; final production files would be prepared to the publisher's confirmed trim size, page count and print specifications.
