Interactive Wizardly Book Covers

This Redesign of the Harry Potter Novels Feature a 3D Aesthetic

— September 26, 2015 — Art & Design
Design student Kincso Nagy created these detailed and interactive cover designs for the popular Harry Potter novel series. The covers feature a die-cut style and pop-outs that make the series and the literature that much more interactive for the reader without the need for tech.

Throughout the books are beautiful handmade illustrations of popular locations from the plot including Hogwarts, Potter's home at 4 Privet Drive and the eerie Forbidden Forest at the outskirts of the school grounds. Many of the images fold open into larger colorful works of airbrushed artwork and some even fold out into 3D pop-ups. Another neat feature is that these book cover designs even glow in the dark when the lights are off adding to the mystic and magic of the book series.
