Book design for Flatpage’s first publication, The Art of Academic Editing.

The Art of Academic Editing: A Guide for Authors and Editors is a practical guide to scholarly editing, editorial services and the publishing process, coedited by Cara M. Jordan and Leslie Castro-Woodhouse. It is the first title from Flatpage’s publishing division.

The cover features an embossed orange post-it that highlights the title over a background of definitions. Wavy lines refer to handwritten annotations. Inside, a clear navigation system suits a reference book meant to be consulted as much as read.
