Finishing up covers for print by making the entire jacket can be very satisfying. I really like making an image wrap around the entire spread. #bookdesign

Boy oh boy was Bring her back a fantastic movie. I can't wait to see what the Philippou brothers do next, and what a year this is shaping up to be for horror. And I haven't even seen Weapons yet.

Our conversation with @larsiusprime.bsky.social is now up on Spotify open.spotify.com/episode/6SQ3... We talk about georgism, what is it and why do we need it?

‘The soul becomes dyed with the colour of its thoughts.’ My cover for the Swedish edition of Marcus Aurelius Meditations, published by Modernista. #graphicdesign #bookdesign #coverdesign #stoicism

Recorded a podcast conversation/interview with @larsiusprime.bsky.social on georgism (in English) yesterday evening, really interesting stuff. Should be available to listen to in a few weeks.

"Pictures are famous for their humanness, not for their pictureness." Kurt Vonnegut discussion of art in his 1997 novel Timequake offers one explanation why people might find AI creations unsatisfying.

I just published the Modernista fall catalogue, with rougly 22 covers by me issuu.com/modernistabo...

Rejected cover design for Orwell's 1984. #bookdesign #graphicdesign #coverdesign

I've only realized in like the last few years or so what a fantastic history of design Poland seem to have. There are so many increadible Polish designers from the 20th century.

I'm once again reminded of how much Bob Gill's – and more specifically his book Unspecial Effects for Graphic designers – outlook on design has influenced me.

I nurture a dream of one day writing a book on design, but I fear that will never happen (because I'm too lazy, distracted, stressed etc). Maybe I should start smaller with a... blog, or whatever the cool kids use these days? Substack? Would anyone be interested in reading that?

These past few weeks I've really struggled with cover design, so much that at the beginning of this week I wanted to quit designing all together. And then just two days ago, things suddenly clicked and I made 4 covers in one day. Isn't that weird?

My favorite #topnine2024 book covers I've made (probably missed a few…). #topnine #bookcovers #bookdesign #graphicdesign

Just sent the Swedish version of "The Genetic Book of the Dead" by Richard Dawkins to print.

I'd like to start posting here (instead of over at Twitter), but building up a following AGAIN takes forever and I'm just… exhausted. I'm having a bit of social media fatigue. Anyway, I'd love recommendations for people (designers specifically) to follow.

My favorite #topnine2023 book covers I've made. #topnine #bookcovers #bookdesign #graphicdesign

In the span of one week (from last friday to today) I've sent 16 books to print, with 12 of them having covers designed by me. Feeling quite productive.
