Book Design


Here at Paradigm we have the design advantage of years of book printing knowledge up our sleeves to ensure your book will be designed to print just right. We know designing books can be a little intimidating with all of the styles, choices and decisions to make, so we use a step by step process to help you focus and achieve your ideal finished product.

 

     
Cover Design

Prospective buyers make a judgement on your book within a instant based on your cover. A great cover design not only has to be aesthetically pleasing and visually balanced but must also capture the feel of your entire book and distil this into the colours, shapes, fonts and imagery used to create your cover.  


Things to consider when designing internal pages include:

  • Typeface
  • Prospective buyer
  • Printing style
  • Time & Budget
  • Images & Copyright
  • Font size
  • Colours palette
  • Emotional response
  • Page dimensions
Inside Page Design & Typesetting

The correct design of your inner pages is critical to keep your reader engaged. When done well, this communicates your content in a highly efficient way while at the same time subtley and intangibly expressing the essence of your individual work and subject matter. This is done by the careful and refined choice of page architecture and elements such as typeface, relative object spacing, justification and many other aspects.

Things to consider when designing internal pages include:

  • Budget
  • End user
  • Printing style
  • Typeface
  • Images
  • Page count
  • Font size
  • Paper stock
  • Colours or Greyscale
  • Emotional response
  • Page size
  • Chapters, sections and numbering
  • Front matter & back matter
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Testimonial

Paradigm did a fantastic job producing my autobiography! It’s bigger, better and more polished than any book a traditional publisher could have printed.
