Metamorphosis

Book design idea of Kafka's Metamorphosis. 

 

Metamorphosis

I decided to take a different approach to the redesign of Metamorphosis. After researching the author Franz Kafka, I realized that he never specified the species of insect that the man transformed into; the popular idea that the man turned into a cockroach is a misnomer. So, I decided to honor his wishes and design the book using textures instead of visuals. I focused on creating a texture on a black background so that the reader could use their sense of touch to get the message.
