I have been developing and working on a design for the cover of my context publication. I already had a colour palette (sort of) clarified and decided I could utilise this within the publication itself. I looked at various ways of communicating the basis of the content — branding. I am leaning towards the design with the registered trademark mark. A logo typically features this mark towards the top right of the design so I intend to emulate this on the cover of the publication — in a way, branding the book itself.
I used these two publications to show the colour palette I intend to use. The salmon / red (whatever it is) could be buckram to bind the heavy, light grey stock for the cover. I will head down to the print resource and see what colours are available and then source the stocks for the entire publication. I will need to produce these myself to reduce costs when commercially printing.
