Book cover catches the eye of the reader before they open the book to read it. Therefore, it is important to use attractive illustrations on the cover to lure readers to pick up your book and then let your plot do the magic. 2023 saw a variety of book cover trends that went beyond the rules and regulations of design. Some of 2023 book cover trends are as follows:
- Abstract Book Covers – Abstract blended covers use a mix of pop colors, texture and design to signify creativity and randomness in order. Although a mix of colors is used by the designer, you could still witness how the abstractness would make sense in regards with the book
- Pop Art – In these book covers, you would see retro, bright images with big text over it. Although initially, the pop covers were looked down upon, but in 2023, they were all over the bookshelves. The vintage feel with modern twist makes it a readers’ favorite book cover.
- Flower Motifs – Floral covers were all over 2023 books: be it minimalist flowers or big floral designs. These designs are mostly in accordance with the plot of the story and the kind of emotion the author wants to evoke in the readers through the cover.
- Double Exposure – The two images are blended in such a way that the final image is breathtakingly gorgeous. For example, the silhouette of a woman’s face would be blended in with the sky with professional designing and editing.
The above-mentioned book cover trends are most likely going to continue in 2024 as well and would catch the readers’ eye for all the right reasons.
