Trading card concept
In developing the visual identity for the book, I spent a lot of time researching where Solarpunk came from and what makes it what it is, including the art movement that inspired it--Art Nouveau. The flourishing line work, outlining, fonts, and colors in this trading card I designed all fit the vibe perfectly. It took many versions to get to this one, but when I hit it, I was very pleased with it. (See the moodboards on this page for more info on Solarpunk)
Glints
Glints are holo light spheres that render indoors or outdoors in Thaladiqa City. The curious little lights seem to have a mind of their own. They often congregate in potted plants.
Jaguar and lounger
Loungers are hovering recliner chairs that carry the ownbody while the mind pilots the jacket. Depicted here is Nixie's jaguar jacket and lounger.
Map of Thaladiqa City
On a sun-drenched island in the Mediterranean in the year 2150, a vibrant city full of art and technology stretches across rolling hills. Floating gardens surround sandy beaches and a grown forest featuring cypress and laurel trees carpets the back of the island.
Solarpunk Moodboard
Where Steampunk is victorian in its fashion and architecture, Solarpunk is Art Nouveau with a touch of Afro-Futurism. Solarpunk is about society in harmony with nature. It's utopian. Think clean energy, robotics in the home, people who make time for art and recreation.
Deen the Dreamwalker - Moodboard
Solarpunk beach town. Robots working in the gardens. Jungle animals using the crosswalks. Glints hovering like holographic bees. Hungry eyes peeking out of dark alleys...
Team logos

Evany Nave palindrome logo
In the city of Thaladiqa, there's a reclusive face designer named Evany Nave. Evany sometimes wears the face of a woman, sometimes the face of a man. If you look closely at their butterfly-shaped logo you'll see the letters of their palindrome name. EVANYNAVE
After the Fight - Sketch
Photoshop sketch of a scene in Chapter 2. Quick sketches like this help myself envision the world while I write the manuscript. Lighting is all wrong, I know. It's just a quick sketch.
