Secular Reflections


Clients: Prof. Dr. John Baldacchino, Midsea Books


Book cover design for Professor Dr. John Baldacchino’s book, Secular Reflections, which explores Maltese politics, society and post-colonial condition.

The design is the second in a series for this author and his publications centering on Malta, created in the same style as Sejjieħ il-Ħsieb and once again bringing in the author’s own handwriting, contrasting with the bold sans-serif typeface and columns of the Maltese Courts of Justice in Valletta. Like with Sejjieħ il-Ħsieb, it also incorporates the typical Maltese limestone colours that are everpresent in the Maltese landscape, from rubble walls to houses and governmental buildings.
