BOOK JACKET (STUDENT PROJECT)

concept • handmade • print • paper craft

Creating a handmade jacket for The Time Traveler’s Wife was a real passion project, being a treasured favourite book.

The essence of the story is the relationship between Henry and Clare, tested by Henry’s genetic tendency to spontaneously travel through time along his own life.

The concept for the cover focused on a paper mobius strip frozen in ice with paper and real flowers, representing Clare’s profession as an artist, Henry’s work as a librarian, and the impossible nature of their relationship.
