Atomic Habits Book cover

My re-design for the book Atomic Habits by James Clear was for the Penguin Cover Design Award 2024. The brief: ‘People think that when you want to change your life, you need to think big. But world-renowned habits expert James Clear has discovered another way. He knows that real change comes from the compound effect of hundreds of small decisions: doing two push-ups a day, waking up five minutes early, or holding a single short phone call. Your cover design should encapsulate the accessible and inspiring message of the book in an immediate and engaging way. Atomic Habits is for everyone who is seeking to make positive change in their lives and the cover design should communicate this message to the broad readership.’
