This month, our new designer, Michelle Argyle at Melissa Williams Design, reimagines the cover of Living Fulfilled: The Infectious Joy of Serving Others by Lisa Thomas-McMillan.

Design Note #1: Using an image that shows hands giving not only food but love tells the reader what to expect from this memoir.

Design Note #2: The original has many images competing for attention, so we chose one central image to quickly convey the warmth and joy of service.

Design Note #3: A blank background brings focus to the title. But we didn’t want the cover to be stark white. A soft cream color creates an inviting feeling.

Design Note #4: Bringing focus to the word joy in the title conveys the main theme of the book. This was achieved by enlarging the font size and picking a color that complements the central image.
