This was for the home and lifestyle book Gardening for Mind, Body and Soul. The brief asked for a full-colour cover with spot illustrations based on excerpts of the book and a provided colour palette.
We have long been aware of the positive effects of spending time in nature and how it can be a powerful antidote to the stresses of modern life. Science now tells us that cultivating a green space of our own can be restorative and even transformative for our physical and mental well-being, with a proven ability to reduce depression and anxiety, boost our happiness levels and provide a feeling of balance and calm.
