Tate British Artists

The Tate British Artists series spans 13 books on artists including Lucian Freud, J.M.W. Turner, Francis Bacon and Barbara Hepworth. Originally, they were a series of glossy black covered paperbacks and our job was to make them a more desirable and collectable series.

Our solution was to turn them into a hardback series with a cloth binding and colour scheme to complement the individual artist’s palette. Inside the images are given more room to breathe and the typography is fresh and modern.
