The brief was to redesign the cover and typographical layout of Marcus Bastel's 'Darker Than Fiction' book of short stories. The genre is not of horror but more of dark mysterious stories. I chose to keep the layout simple and tried not to add any colours immediately assiciated with 'horror', like red and black. Instead I used one of the stories involving a gun as inspiration for the front cover and kept the vector a simple gunshot wound, with grey blood which is also dropping onto the back cover. I kept a white background to emphasize this vector image.
