After the fun I had putting together a similar post on minimalistic book covers, I thought I would revisit book covers, this time focusing on black and white book cover designs.

The showcase consists of over forty covers made up from books from all different genres; graphic design, art and culture, novels and and other non-fiction books. B&W book cover design surprisingly stands out tremendously well, especially with so many (or most!) books being full colour these days.

What is your favourite book cover here? Let us know!

Minimalism is a popular style used in graphic design and illustration, and is widely used in book cover design, helping the user to focus on the title of the book and the authors name. The book cover design is often elegant, using icon design and photography and illustration.

This showcase features over 40 stunning minimalistic book cover designs, including links to Amazon where you can purchase the books for yourself. What’s your favourite?

If you have your own digital examples you should send them to a booklet printing service and have them delivered!
