INTERVIEWS WITH THE BOOK-COVER DESIGNERS

Little Women

Little Women

Designer - Caseroom Press: Barrie Tullett & Philippa Wood

Any thoughts on the Penguin/RED partnership?
It's an honour to be a part of something so important. For the design of a book jacket to be part of a process that saves lives is unbelievable.

Vanity Fair

Vanity Fair

Designer - Yulia Brodskaya

Did you approach the design like any other book, or did it feel that these ones were a little special?
This cover was quite special for me because that was the first time when I used black and white paper stripes only (usually my paper quilling works are very colourful and use white or light background).

Sons and Lovers

Sons and Lovers

Designer - Marian Bantjes

How did this book inspire your cover artwork?
Well, it's a book about love and sex and mothers, and, um, I call this the "vulva type".

Wuthering Heights

Wuthering Heights

Designer - Jonny Hannah

What else do you associate with the colour red?
My favourite 50's flannel shirt. Hammer horrors. A colour I can't screenprint without. Robert Burns' poems.

Silas Marner

Silas Marner

Designer - Jenny Grigg

How did this book inspire your cover artwork?
Because the main character Silas Mariner is a silk weaver, my first idea was to embroider the quote in red thread and have it photographed. That would have involved designing typography for the quote, perhaps in a 19th century type style, and then commissioning a machine embroiderer to stitch up the design in red thread...
