The last (january) french edition of advancedphotoshop, a magazine for design professionals and passionates, has a very interesting article on the design of book covers : the prerequisites, the rules around it, some pieces of advices from professionals and a couple of exemple.
This reminded me of a great collection from penguin books : My Penguin.
The idea behind that is to sell at reasonable price classics with a blank cover, to let the customers design it by their own taste and then to publish these covers on the My Penguin website..
It also highlights covers from famous artists.
Although you can no longer submit your covers, this kind of offer shows the innovative approach of Penguin Books to get in touch with the readers

I was reading a very interesting article about bookshelves in a French design magazine, when I came across an ad for a company specialised in flat false theatre and showcase settings. But what caught my eyes were obviously, well, books! They make copies of piles or lineage of our favourite hobby from real books.
So wether you are Heryn, Ask, Haydin, Lyevin, Aytaple, Ouavryn, Synguin, Kuk, Fretyn, Nyep, or Markete, just check this amazing catalogue and put books wherever you want !

J’étais sur le point de lire un article sur les bibliothèques paru dans un magazine de design quand je suis tombé sur cette pub pour une entreprise produisant des décors plats en trompe l’œil pour les vitrines ou le théâtre. Mais ce qui m’a attiré fut, vous l’aurez deviné, des livres ! Cette compagnie fait, en fait, des copies de piles d’ouvrages ou de linéaires de bibliothèques à partir de vrais livres.
Alors que vous soyez plus Heryn, Ask, Haydin, Lyevin, Aytaple, Ouavryn, Synguin, Kuk, Fretyn, Nyep, ou Markete, jetez un œil au catalogue et mettez des livres partout !
