It is a writing guidance for design project that developed by designer and the others. The guidance becomes blue print as the link:
How to make the interesting book cover?
1. Knowing the theme or message in the book.
2. Choosing the font that suits with the theme.
3. Choosing the correct color based on the content.
4. Using pictures or illustrations.
5. Estimating the size and setting.
