I designed the cover for Hegel: Henki ja luonto (Hegel: Spirit and Nature), published by SoPhi. The client suggested the central motif—a rose—drawing on Hegel’s metaphor of the rose as a symbol of reason. Beyond this, I was given complete artistic freedom.
The client appreciated my earlier cover design for the Finnish translation of Yrjö Hirn’s book, which inspired me to adopt a print-like aesthetic rather than using a realistic photograph for this cover. The design was created from a photo provided by the client.
The book was initially released in digital format. The design for the back cover and spine were created for the subsequent printed edition.
The digital version of the book is accessible here: https://jyx.jyu.fi/jyx/Record/jyx_123456789_94411
