Description.
This book cover series explores the concept of the five senses—sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell—through a system of icon-based visual language. Rather than relying on imagery or text-heavy design, the covers use icons as the primary method of communication, allowing each sense to be represented in a clear, intuitive, and universally recognizable way.

The project focuses on how abstract human experiences can be translated into simple visual symbols. By reducing each sense to its core elements, the iconography emphasizes clarity, consistency, and emotional recognition. The repetition and variation of icons across the covers create a unified system while allowing each sense to maintain its own distinct identity.
This series highlights the power of icons as a design tool for storytelling and conceptual communication. By using a strong visual system, the covers demonstrate how designers can evoke sensory experiences through minimal forms, reinforcing the idea that visual language can engage the viewer beyond words.
