Camila Gray – The Secret Christmas Bookshop – Cressida McLaughlin

Camila Gray weaves wintry magic into the cover of this festive novel.

Camila's enchanting cover for The Secret Christmas Bookshop captures the cosy magic of a wintry seaside village.

Commissioned by HarperCollins, her illustration sets the perfect scene for this festive tale of romance and mystery, where snow-dusted rooftops and twinkling lights frame a story about unexpected connections.

The soft hues and delicate details draw readers into Sophie and Harry’s world, where a mysterious book sparks a journey that blurs the lines between fiction and reality. It’s a cover that feels as warm and inviting as the story within.

Clara Candelot creates a vibrant vision for Brazil’s Festivalzinho

 

Clara crafted the entire visual identity for 'Festivalzinho,' the inaugural music festival designed for families, particularly those with young children.

 

 

The event's organisers sought a lively and engaging visual theme that would resonate with both children and their parents. Clara developed the Key Visual, logo, and Instagram templates, infusing them with playful and whimsical elements that highlight the festival’s main attractions. These include the largest Ferris wheel in Latin America, captivating circus acts, and a rocket-shaped slide.

 

 

The festival is set to take place on 30 November in São Paulo.
