A studio service

Book cover design that survives the thumbnail.

A cover is chosen at about 100 pixels wide, on a phone, next to a hundred others. If the title can't be read and the genre isn't obvious at that size, the cover has already lost — however beautiful it is full-page. We design covers that pass the thumbnail test first, then look bespoke at full size. Print-ready for KDP, plus a matching ebook cover.

N° 01What we design

Covers for every kind of book

01

Children's & picture books

Our home turf — drawn to match the interior, warm legible title lettering, the cover character that's actually in the book.

02

Fiction

Literary, fantasy, thriller, cozy — each designed to read as its genre at a glance, because the wrong-genre cover loses the reader.

03

Non-fiction

Authority and clarity — a title that dominates, a look that says trustworthy, clean at any size.

04

Full KDP print wrap

Back, spine, and front built to your exact page count and trim, with the barcode zone kept clear the way KDP requires.

N° 02Why ours hold up

Designed for how books are actually chosen

The thumbnail is the real test and we run it first. Type is a separate editable layer, so a title can be translated or set for a second edition without repainting the art. And a series treatment keeps a set looking related on a shelf. It's the craft of publishing, not just a nice picture with words on it.

N° 04Questions

The answers we give most often.

Is it print-ready for KDP?
Yes — a full wrap built to KDP's exact trim, bleed, and spine maths for your page count and paper, barcode area kept clear. Plus a separate ebook cover. We design around the specifics that get covers rejected.
Does it work as a tiny thumbnail?
We test that first. A cover is chosen at ~100px in phone search; if the title isn't readable and the genre isn't clear there, it fails. We design and check the thumbnail before anything else.
Do you do children's book covers?
Yes — our home turf. We illustrate children's books, so the cover matches the interior and the cover character is the book's character.
What genres?
Children's, fiction (literary, fantasy, thriller, cozy), and non-fiction — each designed to look like its category.
Editable title or baked in?
The typography is a designed layer — title, series line, and author can be adjusted or translated without repainting the art.
Can you match a series?
Yes — a series treatment keeps type, layout, and spine consistent so books read as a set, while each stays distinct.
