Over a year ago, Patrick Julius reached out to Studio Red Design with an amazing idea as a gift for his sons. His concept was a literal formula to build one’s legacy; which had been a seed in the back of his mind for years. Finally Patrick decided it was time to flesh out his ideas and grow them into a book. His formula for a meaningful legacy helps guides one towards a more meaningful daily life (a gift every parent wants for their child/ren). Rich and deep concepts are personalized throughout the book with amazing stories and insights.

Hot off the presses! We had the pleasure of partnering with Angela to bring her book to life. Included are some of our cover ideas as well as the look of the final piece.

Studio Red Design is honored to support Scepter Publisher’s mission to find the sacred in ordinary life. Like yoga, each breath, each movement is like a prayer or devotion to connect to something deeper; this is what Scepter does with their publications. Scepter publishes and distributes Catholic books which helps orient and renew one’s heart, mind, and spiritual life. We appreciate how books engage the senses, and more than just words on a screen. Books are sacred in and of themselves.

Most books are absolutely judged by their covers. It is important to create inviting and welcoming visual introductions so that the target audience actually reads the material. After some thought, we decided to share covers of some of the favorite books we have had the opportunity to develop for our clients. We encourage you to take a look—hopefully you find something that grabs your attention!

So, we’ve all heard “you can’t judge a book by the cover” as an admonition when we might be rushing to judgement. This aphorism is certainly emotionally compelling but doesn’t really ring true does it?
