Book Cover Illustration & Lettering
Client: HarperCollins (UK)
Art Direction: Ellie Game
Author: Felicity Cloake
This cover was created for Peach Street to Lobster Lane, a vibrant travelogue by Felicity Cloake that follows her coast-to-coast bike journey through the U.S. in search of iconic American cuisine.
I was invited to bring this story to life through a bold wraparound jacket that blends expressive character design, custom typography, and playful food symbolism. Under the art direction of Ellie Game, we developed a retro-inspired road sign for the title, placing the author mid-ride against a backdrop of iconic American landscapes—from California redwoods and desert diners to the New York City skyline.
In addition to the jacket, I illustrated a detailed endpaper map charting Felicity’s real travel route, pairing regional foods with a sense of movement and discovery.
This project was a celebration of food, color, and character—a chance to merge storytelling with stylized design and typographic craft.
