YOUNG SKINS - Colin Barrett
In Colin Barrett’s stories the young live hard and wear the scars.
Each story is defined by a youth lived in a crucible of menace and desire - and each crackles with the uniform energy and force that distinguish this terrific collection.
Designed in-house using various paints and textures, we created a bold and purely typographical approach aiming to capture the impact and energy of the writing within. This approach continues across the cover incorporating the fantastic quotes on the back.
Below the final cover are some options showing the progression between textures and colours.
