It doesn’t get better than a beautifully designed, leather-bound, foil-stamped book! Jessica Hische created this set of books covers for what must have been any designer/book-lover’s dream commission.

The project was for Barnes and Noble and, working with art director Jo Obarowski, produced a range of new covers for a set of classic literature. Each book was complete with marbled end papers and matching details, such as ribbons, headbands, and coloured page edges.

Jessica has done a lot of work for books as a typographer and designer. You can see her typographical design and illustration in advertising and editorial work, too.

    Wow, each by themselves are beautiful, but they work so well as a set. I WANT that copy of Dracula!
