For the fantasy-fiction book “Circulus”, I could not wait to start the design process. The author, Heather Nelson, had a very clear visual direction, which helped me know where to take the design.


I achieved the final design through a combination of After Effects for the glowing orb, Blender 3D for the trees and grass, and Photoshop to add text and composite everything together. Strict adherence to the printing guideline for physical copies of the book was key.


My job was to make the book attract attention just by the cover, while having an element of mystery that matches the book’s tone.
