In order to work out how to approach this brief, it was essential to search out some books that already incorporated collage and found-objects/papers etc into their design. This may be digital, or done by hand.
The Book Cover Archive was a brilliant place to start as you can search for a cover by designer, titles and so on. With well over 1,000 covers, it wasn't long before the use of collage and cut-out image started to appear in a range of different formats.
