Atomic Habits Book Cover

As a reader of this book before the brief, I was ecstatic to create this entree to the Penguin Book Cover Competition for the Non-Fiction Book: Atomic Habits. This is a book about building and breaking any habit one step at a time. This visual identity takes inspiration from Lichtenburg marks created. This atomic change is the heart of this book cover and visual identity.

Key Insight

While researching atomic change, Lichtenburg marks (burning wood with high voltage electricity) look very similar to patterns found in both humans and plants.

By collaging and transforming these marks, blurring lines between humans and nature, I could tell a story of change to show the power of an atomic habit.
