Revisiting Julian Montague



Now that I’ve seen the designer’s website, the book cover project feels more legit. I’m still a little fuzzy on where the idea originally came from, but I have a better understanding of his design style. The only other thing I’ve seen before is the shopping cart book that Mark brought in.

I really like his non-book designs… he makes full use of typography and primarily designs with illustrations (which I am particularly drawn to) or stylized photos. Everything has a fresh look to it, which contrasts to the aged appeal of the faux book design project.
