Developed Ideas

Next I developed my 4 favourite ideas and I added colour to start experimenting with colour schemes and to see which colours would work best. Doing these in colour helped me to see which ones still work in colour and which colour schemes worked best as I did two different versions of three of the designs. I used by colour mood board as a guideline for most of the colours used and by developing these ideas to make them clearer and larger I was then able to choose two ideas to take forward and do larger and more detailed.

I chose to develop these two designs further because they worked the best when done in colour because of the bold contrast between the white space and the background colours. They also have the strongest link with the book and I think people can instantly make a connection between the cover and the content of the book if they know the story.
