50 Watts just held a book cover contest in which participants were challenged to design the “Polish edition” of their favorite book. Directly above is the winning book cover designed by Ben Jones.

You can tell that participants have chosen books that mean something to them, books that they know. The resulting entries are energetic and exciting.
