Cover Design | Forbes Africa 30under30

To mark the fifth milestone of the Forbes Africa 30 under 30 list, four covers had to be designed for the different categories represented.
I chose to move away from the corporate approach we usually lean towards when designing our covers. This time around I went for a vibrant and youthful concept which best portrayed the under30 issue.
Bright coloured backdrops, african printed outfits, playful and minimal use of typography were some of the elements that went into the concept.
