Manual das Decepções de Uma Vida Comum
Author, illustrator, cover designer
A collection of short stories, poems and cartoons about common let downs of everyday life, published in 2022, by Mocho Edições, in São Paulo, Brazil. I worked as a writer, illustrator and art director, coming up with the concept of the cover that would later guide the designer on small cover adjustments and typesetting.
Title: Manual das Decepções de Uma Vida Comum
Publisher: Mocho Edições (Brasil)
Author: Ana Elisa Granziera
Year: 2022
The hand made illustrations, tilted title and the alertness of the yellow color set the humorous tone of the book.
I created a poster mimicking the board game "Life", playing with common disilusions people normally face, and applied it on the second and third covers.
I used the cover illustrations as a fun call to readers to post their feet with the book and increase the engagement before the book launch.
