#ILoveTheseGuys Creative Inspiration: Janet Hansen

The book jacket designs of Janet Hansen are colorful, simple and sophisticated. She seems to employ the international style in her use of large text, asymmetry, and simple shapes/lines.

The hierarchy of her covers are excellent—my eye goes down the page easily while enjoying the colors and/or illustration of each piece. I love her range of typography—the type on each cover seems to capture the essence of each book. She also uses repetition by repeating simple, geometric shapes on a lot of her covers.
