Sol. Mitos, historia y sociedades (“Sun. Myths, History and Societies”) is a book by Emma Carenini that explains how the sun has never been something trivial in civilizations and how its conquest has been pursued for centuries by man.

The goal of the cover design of this Spanish edition for Punta de Vista editores was to reference the sun in the least obvious way possible. There is basically no circular shapes or colors linked to the sun. We use black as the main color. “Sol” is such a recognizable word that just reading it connotes images and sensations. The primary typeface is Megabase (with some modifications done by me), supported by small text set in another typeface from David Jonathan Ross’ Font of the Month Club: Job Clarendon.
