Kobe’s Magical Workshop

Parakid’s cover for L’Atelier magique de Kobe centres on its enigmatic protagonist, a fountain pen expert who reads people through the way they write.

Set inside his shop, the composition draws the viewer into a dense interior of pens, inks and paper, where every surface feels quietly in use. The scene extends beyond the front cover, wrapping into a continuous environment that reinforces the book’s sense of immersion.

Parakid balances character and setting for a cover that invites closer inspection, echoing the careful observation at the heart of the story.
