The Casual Optimist Best of Design

The Casual Optimist's Notable Book Covers of 2017 list is much anticipated each year by those in the book design industry. This year, Scribe designers Laura Thomas and Allison Colpoys have both been featured—the only Australians to do so—in another testament to the incredible skills of our three-person design department.

Laura's cover for Briohny Doyle's Adult Fantasy made the cut, as did Allison's covers for Anosh Irani's The Parcel, Jessica Friedmann's Things That Helped, Daniel Chamovitz's What a Plant Knows (published by Scribe only in Australia), and Michael Brooks' The Quantum Astrologer's Handbook.

Scribe Art Director and Scribble Publisher Miriam Rosenbloom said, 'Working across the market demands of Australia, the UK and now the US is no easy task and I’m very grateful to work alongside this talented duo. Congratulations Al & Laura!’

A sentiment shared across Scribe, both here in London, and in our Melbourne office.
