Now in its 15th year, we are pleased to reveal (and celebrate!) the 2021 winners and finalists for the Penguin Random House Student Design Awards.

Ella Garrett took the top spot in the Adult Fiction Cover Award with a design for - Life Isn’t All Ha Ha Hee Hee. Ella took inspiration from Indian matchbox art to create a vibrant cover that honours the female protagonists shared heritage.

In the Adult Non-Fiction division, Megan Kerr created a simple yet powerful design for The Uninhabitable Earth. with a nod toward the fragility of photographic film when burned to mirror the delicate state of the world.

In the Children’s Cover category, Aphra Blunt displayed a great use of colour with a reimagined cover for Benjamin Zephaniah’s Talking Turkey’s. Taking inspiration from superhero posters, Aphra gave the turkey a bold stance, reinforced by a vibrant, Reggae inspired colour scheme.

Congratulations once again to everyone who took part this year. #prhdesignaward #bookdesign #graphicdesign #bookillustration #bookswinprizes
