Book cover design
All my book covers have been designed for self-published authors ready to publish a middle-grade book.
I always work on the illustration, the font design, and the cover layout. I am sometimes asked to draw interior illustrations and original map designs.

Florian is brilliant! I’ve done several projects with him by now, and his work continues to amaze me. He’s super prompt and he thinks of everything. His sketches are already great, but the end product always, always exceeds expectations.
Only once did we have a small miscommunication on a cover design (younger target audience) that pushed him out of his comfort zone. Florian was super responsive. After sorting it out, he went on to produce a truly fabulous cover (for Mylo and Max Break the World) which, I’m sure, helped my strange little book find its audience and earn a Publisher’s Weekly review.
Highly recommended. You should be so lucky!

I’m immeasurably glad I choose Florian to work on the book cover of Star of Nimrod, and not just because of his stunning design. His imaginative response to my brief was perfect, his communications were crystal clear, he was responsive to feedback and it was a real pleasure collaborating with him. Highly recommended

This was my first time working with Florian, but won’t be my last. His cover design and map illustration brought my words and ideas to life beyond my expectations.

Florian is a master at his craft — he is original, creative and a great communicator. I have worked with lots of very good professionals over time, both on books and also on other products, but Florian stands out head and shoulders above all of them. I am so grateful he said yes to my job. If my book sells well, it will have so much to do with his fantastic, brilliant, inspired artwork. Merci mille fois Florian! I’ll be back for more of your gold. : )

I loved working with Florian and I have already submitted another request to him.
He brought my characters to life and on seeing them, I thought, “Yes! That’s them, exactly!”
Of course, Florian’s artwork is stunning, but my amazement is how generous he is with his time, this far exceeds the cost of his services.
He is incredibly patient and he took the time to really get to know what my book was all about , what my intention is for my book, my characters and the ideas behind the story, then he encapsulated this into a beautiful book cover.

Florian was a delight to work with. His communications were prompt and professional. His designs exceeded my expectations and I’m thrilled with the final project.
Our timeline went longer than planned because of a health issue and Florian generously extended the project to accommodate me.
I recommend Florian and would happily work with him again.

Florian’s work exceeded my expectations. He provided his own personal touch and experience as an artist while making sure to respect my own creative decisions, and I think the result is the best possible version of what we set out to accomplish. My book now has a cover that I’m confident is memorable, eye-catching and overall just pleasant to look at.
I’d be delighted to work with him on future projects, and I highly recommend him to anyone who wants a cover that stands out among the rest.

Collaborating him him was so easy and His english is amazing. I know my book will sell more because of his cover art! I will work with him again if I can.
