Classic Penguin books have a fresh typographic face-lift


I’m sure you have in your travels come across the classic minimalist Penguin classic covers

Well, a number of the classic reads have had a bit of a face-lift thanks to a group of designers and Aids awareness fund (RED) teaming up with the book publisher Penguin books

Dracula designed by Non-Format

The Secret Agent designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith (Penguin Press art department)

Notes From Underground designed by Gray318 (Jon Gray)
