The Wok And The Whisk

The Wok And The Whisk

Cover for Volume I of a five-book cookbook series, "French Knife, Asian Fire" — "The Wok & The Whisk." French technique meets the fire of Asia, 35 recipes, written by a World Master Chef with 30+ years across France, Canada, China, and Southeast Asia. The brief: one concept, one motif — your choice of a wok, a flame, or a knife — rendered as bold illustration, not photography. I want the kind of cover people remember and talk about without being told to. If it looks like what everyone else is doing, it's not right. This needs to be the first of its kind — instantly understood, impossible to mistake for anything else on the shelf. Why illustration: fusion is a concept, not one dramatic dish a photo can sell on its own. Illustration solves that; photography doesn't. This was the brief from he client. According to the brief I made the design concept and after some tweaks I ended up on this final version.

I've tried to stay on minimalistic approach (no images) but still, keep some story behind the letters. The letter A in the title resembles a silhouette of a person with a big belly (obese).

Book Cover for "In Your Shadow We Bloom"

Book Cover for "In Your Shadow We Bloom"

In Your Shadow We Bloom is a dark dystopian romance set in a society where aging has been conquered at a terrible price. Women known as the Beloved are forced to surrender their life force to sustain the immortality of the ruling elite. Yuma is one of them. Alastire is an Unsetting, a 500-year-old aristocrat who has lived for centuries on stolen life. When their paths cross, a dangerous attraction develops between a woman whose life is being consumed and a man who belongs to the very class responsible for her suffering. The story explores power, exploitation, obsession, forbidden desire, and the devastating consequences of love in a world where eternal youth comes at the expense of women’s bodies.
