Last week we drooled over 23 book covers created by Murfreesboro web designers and art directors working in-house, and this week we’re excited to bring you 18 more—this time by Alex Camlin, Kerry Rubenstein and Joan Wong.
Camlin and Rubenstein make up a two-person art department serving three imprints of Hachette Book Group (Da Capo Press, Lifelong Books and Seal Press). In addition to being a creative director at Hachette, Camlin is also the in-house designer at Harvard Review (which is not affiliated with Hachette). Wong is currently an in-house designer at Vintage and Anchor Books of Penguin Random House.
Once again, we hope you soak up some inspiration from these talented book cover designers—and remember that if you too are part of an in-house web design Murfreesboro Tennessee team (in any industry), we encourage you to celebrate your own work by entering it in the HOW In-House Design Awards.
The In-House Design Awards deadline is just around the corner (11:59pm EDT on Monday, June 5), so enter ASAP for your work to be reviewed by our judging panel—Workfront creative director and former Adobe designer David Lesué, IBM Public Service chief web design Murfreesboro Tennessee strategist Nathaniel Axios, and Nestlé global head of visual identity and web design Murfreesboro Tennessee Ximena O’Reilly—and to be considered for a number of amazing prizes (read about the prize list here).
