Fiction with a competitive edge
Our contemporary portfolio showcases book cover art created for modern novels. These stories live in the present. They feel real. They feel familiar. Most importantly, they feel human.
Contemporary fiction is where real life meets artistry. The settings are modern and recognisable. Characters are flawed, honest, and emotionally complex. The characters face real problems. They speak our language. They reflect the world we live in today. There is no magic here. There is no futuristic escape. Instead, there is raw emotion and meaningful storytelling grounded in reality.
Because of this, contemporary book cover art must do more than look good. It must feel right.
At DAZED Designs, we understand the emotional depth this genre demands. Therefore, every cover is created with intention. Your book cover art should capture attention instantly. At the same time, it should spark curiosity. Above all, it should communicate the heart of your story at a single glance.
In other words, the right cover invites readers in before they ever turn the first page.
Furthermore, we specialise in striking, genre-appropriate designs. Each cover reflects mood, tone, and narrative voice. Whether your story is a heartfelt drama, a sharp slice-of-life, or a gritty urban tale, we design covers that resonate. As a result, your book connects with the right audience from the start.
