Sputnik Sweetheart is my favourite novel by Japanese author Haruki Murakami. As an homage, I decided to re-design an English edition book cover using a minimalist approach.
My design process began with sketching out initial ideas to get a feeling for composition and colour. As my goal with this project was to create a minimalist design, I used a limited colour palette. I also wanted to use the title and combine it with the novel's content in a creative and subtle way.
The final design, and close-up of the Sputnik Eye I created for this book cover.
Thank you for looking!
