Penguin Book Cover Reimaginations
Format: Book covers
Year: 2025
In 1961, Romek Marber designed the Penguin Grid – a structured layout that brought consistency to Penguin book covers while still allowing for creativity. Over 60 years later, it still holds up. Why? It’s structured but not rigid, text and image actually work together, it avoids trends and rather focuses on simplicity.
Using this iconic 1960s Penguin Marber Grid, I reimagined some of my favourite novels.
