100 Classic Novels Re-Covered

Belgian graphic design studio, Beshart, brought together 100 artists from 28 countries to redesign the covers for "The 100 Greatest Novels of All Time." The mission of the project was to raise awareness for the problem of illiteracy. The collection was officially released in Antwerp City Hall in Belgium on International Literacy Day, Sept. 8. "Support Our Cause" -- the clear call to action. Check out the online gallery. There are so many novels on this list that I still want to read!

  1. These make my heart sing! I think this would be a great assignment for a design class. We had to do this in Typography I, but we couldn't use images, which was limiting.
