Book Jacket Designs by Kate Forrester
Judge a Book By Its Cover - Book Jacket Designs by Kate Forrester
Hello, my name is Kate and I am an illustrator based in Brighton, UK. For the past 15 years I have specialised in creating hand lettering and illustration for book covers, packaging, advertising and many other applications, telling stories through the combination of intricate decorative detail and my distinctive typographic designs.
What inspired your design for your favorite book jacket?
I have done a couple of book jackets for Supriya Kelkar which I really loved working on. They are YA books set in India and the inspiration came from Indian wood block textiles and the pattern and colours of the region. I also researched the beautiful painted 'jingle' trucks of South Asia.
