More details
This cover uses two photographs in a montage to convey the process of building a house. By showing aspects of house building, from idea to completion, the designer of this cover has opened up a visual narrative for the viewer. The way in which the photographs have been displayed on the page also further this sense of a story being told, as the image runs from a left to right diagonal.
