HELL

This cover design is very minimalistic, but again, there's a sense of unease looking at it. The most prominent focal point of the cover is the title of the book, “Inferno,” and the letters are very striking, but they appear to be eroded, as if they have been burned, which visually reinforces the painful theme of the book. The minimalist white background contrasts with the harsh title and enhances the visual impact. The subtitle, author's name, and translator's name are designed in a clean line font, ensuring clarity and preventing confusion with the title.
The back page is still designed with a clean line font, but with some keywords highlighted in red. This contrasting black and red design gives a subconscious sense of danger and alertness and highlights the book.
