Even though Bloomsbury recently released refreshed covers for the Harry Potter book series, a Hungarian artist put her own spin on the novels with her redesigned Harry Potter pop-up books. Kincső Nagy's glowing book covers each have an illustration symbolic of that installment's plot. For example, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows features a laser-cut luminous deathly hallows symbol while Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets has a snake in the shape of an S.
Except for the glow in the dark illustrations, the redesigned Harry Potter book covers are a simple black paper with the book title printed vertically on the side, also in black. The inside has a pop-up format with more magically mesmerizing illustration.
