Dunkelheit
Cover and graphic design for "Dunkelheit" by Lisa-Viktoria Niederberger.
In her powerful collection of essays, Lisa-Viktoria Niederberger asks: What might a life look like if we allowed more space for darkness again? She explores themes of darkness and power structures, hidden class divisions, critiques of patriarchy, and the cultural meaning of the night sky and stars. Her writing touches on nature conservation, labor rights, and feminist and political questions.
The cover design reflects the themes of the book and emphasizes its core idea by giving the title "Dunkelheit" more space through bold typography and a bold visual arrangement. The illustrated windows introduce subtle points of light - a reference to hope and visibility in the darkness.
