Designing book promotions across thirteen years at Powell's Books meant solving a recurring creative challenge: making each campaign feel distinct while accommodating a wide range of print and digital formats. For this buy-two-get-one-free mystery promo, I developed an original illustration placing the viewer inside the bookcase, evoking the visual language of pulp fiction covers and classic mystery novels. The bookshelf framing provided a flexible compostional anchor that scaled seamlessly across all deliverables, from in-store displays to web assets. The illustration was later picked up for placement in a mystery trade magazine.
