My second submission for the Simon & Shuster 60th anniversary edition of Ray Bradbury's brilliant--and still vitally relevant-- novel.
In this design, I'm going out on a limb and making a connection to the current state of the publishing industry, how it seems to struggle with two worlds-- the digital and the physical. In Bradbury's novel, books are burned to destroy forbidden knowledge, to control how stories affect the populace. Burning books is not very different from deleting files off of an e-reader, a computer, or a database.
The digital opens up all sorts of corruption of text & narrative & information. Replace the 'n' word in Huckleberry Finn to make it more palatable for modern sensibilities; trim out the 'boring bits' from Moby Dick...
Thought-control by slight degrees.
Update: Now, a couple of years later, I look at this and smile because I think I made the judges balk that I designed the cover to look like a Kindle. Heh. Go big or go home, IMO.

CARLA RISING | BOOK COVER DESIGN
Maria Papaefstathiou partnered with author Topper Sherwood to create the cover of Topper's new book Carla Rising.
The book challenges war and violence as a means for resolving political / labor struggles.
A novel based on a true story.
The story of Carla Rising follows the injustice and violence endured by a real community of coal miners in the 1920s. This rugged band stands up to callous industrialists and corrupt law-enforcement officials to win decent working conditions, fair pay and greater regard for human life. Having escaped her overbearing mother’s mountain life, Carla Rising finds herself caught between two rival leaders in a workers’ rebellion against the brutal regime of a corrupt county sheriff and the Sovereign Coal Company.
Carla Rising walks a rugged path for justice as she and the miners defend their mountain settlement. The conflict ultimately draws the involvement of the US Army, whose leaders threaten to use their newest bombing planes to put a quick end to the energy war if Carla and the miners don’t back down….
I illustrated the cover to portray this hero woman and truly collectivist. A strong woman who lost her husband but continued to fight for justice, in the union. For one -her husband- and all.

This is a book design and execution that I created for Susan Kozel's book Closer published by the MIT press.
It was an assignment in a UCLA Design | Media Arts Class. The front portion of the book is comprised of all the text and images, clearly setup into a four row system, which aligns to the four flipbooks at the very back of the book.

Bermuda is a personal book of a recent trip to Hamilton, Bermuda. The book was made as a hardcover, and also an ipad version that had embedded videos of snorkeling and sailing.
"Design Benign" was my senior thesis project. I studied the role of cuteness in contemporary product design, what cuteness is exactly comprised of, and how cuteness can be beneficial to design.
Design Benign is an ongoing research project about the role of cuteness in product design. You can read excerpts from it, as well as new material, at design-benign.blogspot.com

I was recently invited to take part in a project based on Taduesz Borowski's book of stories about his experiences in a Nazi concentration camp. Designers were asked to supply their own interpretation of the cover in order to create a larger body of work that would hopefully create discussion about how the holocaust is represented and mediated.
