Karin Kerotova, a second year student, was recognised in the Children鈥檚 Book category where her striking design imagining the cover for Nazneen Ahmed Pathak鈥檚 novel 鈥�City of Stolen Magic鈥� was described by judges as a 鈥榖old design with an engaging illustration鈥�.

The is an annual competition open to all aspiring designers and illustrators in the UK who haven鈥檛 yet had experience in a paid creative role.

Speaking about this recognition, Karin said: 鈥淚 am very thrilled to have come 3rd in the Penguin Cover Design Award as I have always absolutely loved books but I have never tried to design a book cover before, which makes this achievement so much more significant to me. I have learned so much during this competition, and it has definitely had a huge impact on me and my visual style!鈥�

Karin鈥檚 achievement will be celebrated at the winners鈥� reception held at the Penguin offices in London, where she will have an opportunity to meet and network with the publisher鈥檚 Art Directors.

Judging Karin鈥檚 design, Anna Billson 鈥� Art Director at Penguin Random House Children鈥檚 鈥� commented: 鈥淎 bold design with an engaging illustration which packs in so much detail while making great use of a limited colour palette. The characters instantly draw you in and the decorative elements evoke the magic in the story. Congratulations Karin!鈥�

Noel Douglas, Senior Lecturer in Graphic Design, added: 鈥淒espite being only in her second year, Karin is already producing beautiful and intelligent designs in her work and this award, chosen against hundreds of other entries, stands as a testament to that. Every one of us on the Graphics team is delighted for her and we鈥檙e really looking forward to what she will create in her upcoming final year.鈥�
