Initial Concepts and Sketches
The imagery for the covers was inspired by everyday objects in a convenience store such as the employee badge and store signages. Since this novel took place in Japan, I also conceptualized a cover design using onigiri (rice balls) packaging, which is a popular food item sold at Japanese convenience stores.
