Genre expertise

Thriller & Mystery

High-contrast typography and restrained imagery that signals tension fast.

Romance

Illustrated or photographic treatments tuned to your subgenre's reader cues.

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

World-building imagery with legible display type that survives thumbnails.

Memoir & Business Non-Fiction

Authoritative, editorial layouts that place the idea and author front and centre.

What makes a cover sell

Readers decide in seconds, often from a thumbnail on a phone screen. A good cover signals the genre, sets the mood, and stays readable at every size.

Genre signals first

Every genre has visual expectations — fonts, colour, imagery, and layout. We study current bestsellers in your category so your cover looks like it belongs on the same shelf, while still standing out.

Built for the thumbnail

We test every concept at small sizes. If the title cannot be read at the size shown in search results, the design is changed before it reaches you.

Print-ready files

Full wrap covers are built to your final page count, trim size, and paper type, with correct spine width and bleed, so they pass KDP and IngramSpark checks the first time.

Licensed images only

All photography and illustration is properly licensed or created for you. You receive the final files and the rights to use them on your book and its marketing.
