Created by Michelle Ishay, this book cover uses mirrored fonts which create an unusual, mysterious, and playful design. The mirrored fonts imply the “reflection” of graphic designs in history.
Michelle Ishay, or full name Michelle Ishay Cohen, is a mysterious designer and creative director, that mainly works on book cover designs such as John Derian Picture Book. Her minimalistic design for the book cover's background and simple title designing style gives a strong impression to make the readers curious about the book. She does not publish any personal information other than some of her design works for books and book covers.
This book is published by Abrams Books. (formerly Harry N. Abrams, Inc.) The contents include the wide history of graphic design related issues from around 34,000 BC until after 1984.
