This is part 2 of a brief I received in Finished Art. The Brief was to redesign a two-book set in such a way that they were (a) matching, and (b) completely original.

Whilst the rest of my classmates got classics such as Frankenstein/Dracula, Lord Of The Rings/The Hobbit, Pride And Prejudice/Emma, Crime and Punishment/War And Peace, etc, The two books I was given were Winnie The Pooh and The House At Pooh Corner! Go figure.

The point of the exercise was to not use any existing artwork or imagery that had been associated with the books before. So I conceptualised and sketched, ideated and stressed. And finally came up with the leather-bound premium book look - marketed to the grownups that love Pooh, but don't want to have a children's book on their bookshelves.

Surprisingly, this has not been done in real life! There are several layers to the book covers, including gradients, an arabesque pattern, and "gold" gilding.
