My Roommate is a Vampire Book Cover
This book cover redesign merges photography and illustration to capture the comedy and romance of My Roommate Is a Vampire by Jenna Levine. My take on the redesign involves creating a 2D dimensional paper-cut apartment buildingthat reflects the novel’s setting and whimsical tone. By carefully designing, cutting, and assembling the building using the book’s existing color scheme, I aim to bring a tactile, handcrafted feel to the cover while maintaining visual cohesion with the story’s themes.
The book centers on Cassie Greenberg, a struggling artist, lands a dream apartment with one major catch—her eccentric roommate, Frederick, might be a vampire. As she uncovers his awkward yet endearing nature, their bond deepens, blurring the line between friendship and romance.
This redesigned cover reflects the playful and romantic tone of the novel while visually emphasizing its quirky apartment setting through paper-crafted illustration and photography.
