Book Cover Redesign for Productivity Book: Ignite Your Habits

**Book Cover Designer Needed to Finalize Two Existing KDP Cover Concepts** I am looking for an experienced book cover designer to help finalize the exterior cover for my productivity/self-development book: **Ignite Your Habits** This is **not a from-scratch design project**. I already have two strong cover directions/mockups, and I need someone to professionally polish, refine, and finish them. The two concepts are: 1. **Stepping Stones / Sunrise Concept** A calm, transformational, premium design with stepping stones leading toward a sunrise/horizon. 2. **Arrow / Light Beam Concept** A bold, energetic design with an upward arrow/light beam integrated into the title typography. I will provide the existing mockups, reference images, brand logo, title/subtitle/author info, back cover text, and a video walkthrough explaining exactly what needs to be fixed. **Important:** I do **not** have editable source files for the existing mockups. You must be comfortable working from image references and recreating/refining the concepts as needed to produce a clean, professional final cover. The final design should feel: * Premium * Modern * Clean and readable * Motivational / self-development focused * Aligned with the Art of Ascension brand * Navy / midnight blue, orange-gold, and white color palette * Professional enough for Amazon KDP paperback, hardcover, and ebook **Scope / deliverables:** * Polish both existing cover concepts so they are ready for audience voting * Improve typography, spacing, balance, visual hierarchy, and back cover readability * Make the front, spine, and back cover feel cohesive as one wraparound design * Avoid anything that feels cheesy, overly AI-generated, or like a movie poster * After the winning concept is selected, create the final full KDP wraparound cover * Provide the final front cover / ebook version * Provide the print-ready PDF for Amazon KDP * Provide editable source files for future edits **Requirements:** * Experience designing full nonfiction book covers * Experience with Amazon KDP wraparound covers * Strong typography, spacing, and layout skills * Ability to work from image references without editable source files * Ability to provide editable source files at the end * Clear communication and attention to detail Please include examples of previous book covers you have designed, especially nonfiction, self-development, productivity, business, coaching, or personal growth covers. When applying, please briefly answer: 1. What software do you use? 2. Do you have experience creating full KDP paperback/hardcover wraparound covers? 3. Based on the title *Ignite Your Habits*, which visual direction do you think sounds stronger: stepping stones/sunrise or arrow/light beam, and why?
