Cover Design- Series

As the Hunger Games series have all been released, it is common to find them packaged together, in some cases in a box set. This is more appealing to people as they are able to keep them together. The design for the box set I own is a plain black box that has the signature mocking jay symbol on all sides and the title and author name. I feel like the box could have been more eye-catching, with a design that is not as plain.

The books, on the other hand, are in bright blues and oranges that contrast with the box and are much more striking to see. The images on the cover are all very similar, with the colours changing from cover to cover. There are images behind the ‘HG’ symbol on the cover that changes, yet everything else remains the same. I like this as it shows them as part of a set and reflecting each other.

The font for these books is bold and appears to be damaged and worn in some areas, reflecting the theme of the book. There are also splatters and splodges around the text that differs in colour from book to book, which means that they may represent different things. This font and splash concept has been continued inside the book for the chapter numbers and headings for the different parts of the book. I feel this is a nice idea to keep the iconic title font running throughout the book itself.
