‘Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’
Digitally illustrated hardcover edition of Douglas Adams’ 1979 cult classic novel “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.”
I created all 33 illustrations, handmade & hand-bound the book, and hand-embossed the jacket band. Book is printed on archival paper and hardcover is made with cardboard and bookcloth.
Front cover: jacket featuring embossed title band and all illustrations, of various sizes and orientations.
Book jacket collage is composed of all 33 original illustrations in the book, randomly placed in various sizes and orientations on the grid. Black title strip is a reinforced movable paper band with glossy, hand-embossed title.
Here is a selection of original illustrations as they appear in the spreads of the book:
