“The idea was to bring sci-fi to a wider audience,” says James Jones, who worked on this particular series that uses images designed by recent graduate Sanda Zahirovic. “We wanted to create a series style that would adhere to the nature of the content – eg its complexity – but employ a hands-on approach. “Sanda created each cover using A4 paper, with all the typography printed and placed on the structure by hand,” Jones continues. “We then photographed each paper structure and, upon seeing the original black and white images, we didn’t feel that any tweaking or further alterations were needed.”
