Les Allusifs
Paprika, 2007
Description
Les Allusifs is a small publishing house that likes to distinguish itself from the more commercial, less art-oriented publishing firms. Throughout Europe and North America, they publish challenging works of fiction by internationally renowned authors.
We were asked to give a “new life” to Les Allusifs’ books for this new series. The covers reflect a lighter mood and make a strong impact on bookstore shelves. We wanted to create a sense of harmony between each new jacket. We used powerful colors and illustrations by Alain Pilon.
Juror Notes
A fantastic, meticulously considered fiction series: the perfect juxtaposition of handmade collage, industrial typography, graceful format and binding.
