The cover design of this book is still in progress, but you can already pre order The Smashing Book #3 since today. The site shows my 1st design (not the blue ones, this isn't created by me btw). Here is a fragment of the new version.
@Mark Cossey Thank you :) For the initial draft yes, (which you can view on Smashing Magazine) this particular image from my Inspiration Gallery. The feedback on the colors was to throw in some blue as well, as the new branding also uses a particular blue now. I totally didn't think of that and was very focussed on using only warm colors… But adding the blue creates this very nice contrast, which I believe is an improvement.

I'd buy the book for the cover alone. I hope they include a poster!

Nicely done @Veerle Pieters would be amazing to see the process behind this branding, have you thought releasing an article about it ?
