Beautiful typography in book covers

Most designers are taught and/or learn the importance of typography when they first start out, and it is instilled into our brains. Most other non-design people look at a design with all the elements put together noticing the typography last and picking up on the more dominant elements like images. This selection of book covers forces the reader into looking at the type by making it the prominent theme or the only theme to draw their attention.

    Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
