Some Fun

Some Fun

Simon & Schuster, New York, New York, 2005

Description

The challenge was to create a package that shows Antonya Nelson’s many achievements as a writer in a way that reflected the title and its contents of short stories. 

Juror Notes

Usually designers hate when books win awards and a big ugly seal has to be plunked in the middle of the cover. This takes the opposite road and has fun with the idea.
