Classic Book Series - Book Design 
The task was to develop a concept and create book covers for a classic book series using symmetrical typography. Inspired by ancient Greece and its influence on western culture, I wanted to create book covers for three significant works from the era – The Histories by Herodotus, The Orestia by Aeschylus, and Poems and Fragments by Sappho.
