HOME BOYS
BOOK WRAPPING REDESIGN PROJECT
BOOK DESIGN | ILLUSTRATION | TYPOGRAPHY
CLIENT: ALEX WHEATLE & ARCADIA BOOKS
ABOUT THE PROJECT:
Commissioned to rebrand Alex Wheatle’s novel The Seven Sisters, retitled Home Boys. The project involved designing a new front cover, back cover, and spine that more effectively conveyed the book’s themes and narrative tone. Focused on developing a concept that captured the story’s emotional depth and cultural context, replacing the previous design’s ambiguity with a clearer, more evocative visual identity. The result is a contemporary and engaging cover that resonates strongly with readers.
