It was thought over to connect the spines of the books into one general composition, with visual differences of each volume.

On the stylized photo of K. Marx there are circles, which denote the number of the volume (according to the idea, meaning the epiphany) + under the title there are strips, which are the number of the book.

During the development, prototypes were printed and the size and design were adjusted to the books.

Finish trimming all the covers and get 4 beautiful gift «super covers»:
