Each cover was printed in 5 colors with a soft-touch laminate to make the blacks as flat and rich as possible. This is just a selection of the 40+ beautiful covers Malika created for the series, all featuring the UNSQ font created for the house by Nigel Brody’s team at Brody Associates. This project was a highlight for me, even tho all I really did was hire Malika and Nigel to make it happen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1761586374033-QA4A99Y3JA3OBTPQQ37V/9781454951230_cvr.jpg Fiction & Classics - The Dance of the Dolls This creepy thriller takes place behind the scenes of a ballet that features a life-sized wind-up doll, twin ballerinas, a cobbler, and an obsessed stalker.

It’s full of twisty turns and I thought the folding cane—which she uses throughout the story—was a perfect device to help illustrate all the angles of the storyline. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1761586324014-4G5DYFX4P1L3Z1YY2EXC/9781454945222_cvr.jpg Fiction & Classics - Wrath This super creepy cover was illustrated by my fave Eric Nyquist, who—along with the authors—also created endsheets and a back cover illustration that contain a secret code that I will not divulge, you’ll just have to work it out on your own. 4/C with a spot uv just on the eye, and the R-A-T of the title. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1761587260553-9Y2ZHERAV5P2F1EOVZTG/CBH_9781454947042_cvr.jpg Fiction & Classics - Gothic Tales Series These 64-page chapbooks feature illustrations by Dave Kendall, and are printed in three colors: black, silver metallic ink, and varying neon inks. Dave is a dream to work with and squeezed these in between several large paintings he was working on for Magic: the Gathering, which made me feel cool just by association. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1761586350873-U3BUM0I2VJ1V9DJ6WX9N/image-asset.jpeg Fiction & Classics - Providence Cover photo from Offset; effect from Envato https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1761587153897-CQ3EGJBCHDFIB16N5ZHC/CBX_9781454944393_OHenry.jpg Fiction & Classics - Christmas Chapbooks These 64-page chapbooks feature patternwork illustrations by the wondrous Yehrin Tong, printing in 4/C with foil accents and a soft-touch laminate. For this series, we wanted the voids in the patterns to be just as meaningful to the composition of the covers as the patterns themselves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1761675155258-X8QBTDOSYG69X1AGUKA5/image-asset.jpeg Fiction & Classics - Book of Marvels These classic tales of exploration didn’t have much of a budget, so the book has a faux-leather photographic background and a fake foilstamp on its cover, which I still regret to this day. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1761588657722-HUIJDP5S6O2ENOIW71JU/CB_9781454944781_TEMP.jpg Fiction & Classics - Poetry Chapbooks These 64-page chapbooks feature illustrations by the wondrous Yehrin Tong, printing in 4/C with foil accents. There is an owl who lives in my yard and I think Yehrin really captured its creepy, looming energy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1761675272892-SHWV6LA6YW4ZB8FVCI5P/WGLL_3D.jpg Fiction & Classics - World's Greatest Love Letters Classic correspondence from literary loves, greats, philanderers, and heartbreakers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1761675367220-VOZYWUNY4YB3YM0153IY/Seed_3D.jpg Fiction & Classics - Seed This is a crazy old cover, but I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for the photo, which the publisher found in a thrift store. https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/nonficcovers daily 1.0 2025-12-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750090161084-LI0WQTSJ0AH09L6IGLF0/image-asset.jpeg Nonfiction - The Nature of Nature 6-color printing with two hits of opaque white ink on a silver foil sheet.

This was my fave as well as the editor’s, so let’s pretend this is what went to print. The image is an old deep-field view from NASA. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750432807255-E0RQSED8FYMKHXGS1HYB/Galapagos_3D.jpg Nonfiction - Galapagos at the Crossroads Illustration of a marine iguana from the Picture Collection, The Branch Libraries, The New York Public Library, Astor, Lenox, and Tilden Foundations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750432807674-PD8I0MVSM5V47PZ6OPX3/GoryDetails_3D.jpg Nonfiction - Gory Details Cover illustrations by Briony Morrow-Cribbs.

The image was pulled from the now-defunct stock agency a few days after it was approved, so we had to move on to something else. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750432809347-QCHH95A9B06M1F65HA4T/GraveSecrets_3D.jpg Nonfiction - Grave Secrets of Dinosaurs Cover art by Julius T. Csotonyi, based upon scans of a nearly complete mummified hadrosaur that was the subject of the book. If you ever need someone to draw you a very accurate dinosaur, I highly recommend Julius. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750432810112-TDVT8C0MIE6PRDD763B4/HowILearnedEnglish_3D.jpg Nonfiction - How I Learned English Our Amazon Sales rep called this cover “obscene” and “disgusting” when we showed it to the team at our sales conference, so I knew I must be on to something. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750432813045-563KIC9BGLLU7KG8DWJ9/Fauci_3D.jpg Nonfiction - Fauci: Expect the Unexpected Image by Visko Hatfield. This was a candid outtake from the shoot, but it felt like the most relevant option at the time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750432816308-QGWX8FDNSCFE3CE8LMNH/TNON_3D.jpg Nonfiction - The Nature of Nature 6-color printing with two hits of opaque white ink on a silver foil sheet.

They were photographed by Frans Lanting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750432819248-2XW1S6CLI6ER818S6TO6/Suggestible_3D.jpg Nonfiction - Suggestible You Spot gloss on that O, naturally. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750432818923-NFY8E441T022BPF5SJF8/SixDegrees_3D.jpg Nonfiction - Six Degrees I bought that thermometer on ebay for $9.99, and digitally altered the readout to only have 6 degrees. It was German, and came in a little red leather case. I still have it.

The stories in it were the exact kind of thing I would want out of a cocktail book, though some of the drink recipes had very hard to find ingredients. I used some vintage, classic “National Geographic” elements in this design, including the old masthead treatment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762458008111-34KCYQ4IYK97301EACKU/WorldIsBlue_3D.jpg Nonfiction - The World Is Blue Box jellyfish by Gary Bell. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762458021790-47JYW6PSTKU7ES1Y4WVB/TELAC_3D.jpg Nonfiction - The Essential Lewis & Clark Lewis and Clark Expedition (oil on canvas), by Thomas Mickell Burnham, (1818-66)/David David Gallery, Philadelphia, PA, https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/lifestylegift daily 0.75 2025-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750090167349-8Y48199TZ0A3P6WAEYUH/image-asset.jpeg Lifestyle & Gift Cover photo by Rebecca Hale https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750714305174-692H692YZT2HQVARVPJX/1001_3D.gif Lifestyle & Gift - 1001 Series A redesign of Sterling Ethos’s epic 1001 Series, these covers print in 4/C with foil accents. 1001 Crystals features watercolors by Caroline Casey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1750714317533-7ZBSEIZ8DL72RGZEZ7YN/Attainable_3D.jpg Lifestyle & Gift - Attainable Sustainable Cover photo by Laura Chase de Formigny.

Photo Ark series, I was faced with the enormity of Joel Sartore’s archive—thousands of portraits of creatures great and small, categorized only by their taxonomy and the level of extinction threat they faced. After much discussion with the edit team and our publisher, we decided to pair them as if they were truly boarding a mythical ark to survival, and organized the book around this concept, displaying their images, for the most part, two by two. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644253361-LSY1WO8C4BEXSC5P6AJC/PA1.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644353878-GEB59SLRS4TLURY5AGKM/PA4.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644357192-1EDI8J7AIC1HSEDFQ12Z/PA5.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644360165-UOI8NVPGXQKWHIHMV45C/PA3.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644253495-EHN2XTWHGOQVC6AKPFSR/PA22.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644262522-E29PJZTOBG20M3UVFHOC/PA21.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644261274-0E2G65NHR0TMSVEF0L12/PA20.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644270305-1EH428AQS084JJ97V12P/PA19.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644273337-P5R2B3B3923JOD2L41E0/PA18.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644277935-VSSQ46PI8XRF4IJ4XMRY/PA17.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644283550-HA9NWKKOUTBO7TOKA9OT/PA16.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644286306-XZR92B6HF5BA39GEQTQO/PA15.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644298575-IBYOFIYWGQDB8OHHBRH4/PA14.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644298868-78W6G8Y8YX4T393H81LD/PA13.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644311995-9NKKPBXVQKSJF19A7ONG/PA12.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644312613-54S45C9JP93TY052RFU9/PA11.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644326138-O5SN1MTSVLD1NHDG9ITX/PA10.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644338790-FKYOZIK7C02ZXCIVJHXL/PA9.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644331714-522C14PYCXG7M3HP4EXW/PA8.jpg Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644347651-8IFN5B7BDWQQGGLAPIWW/PA7.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644349806-SISJYY8NZF53XECMNCEQ/PA6.png Photo Ark https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758644369928-Y1GI23VALGYPMPX2T2SH/PA2.png Photo Ark https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/phark-wonders daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/ab42dedb-c520-4401-beb9-59bc50588baf/PHARKWonders_3D_white.jpg Photo Ark Wonders - Doubling down Continuing with the concept in the original Photo Ark compendium, the portraits here are organized by visual themes derived from the creatures themselves, and presented largely in pairs to contrast or highlight those themes. For this project, I also researched and wrote the fact features (like the one seen below on the kiwi), as it was easier to have the person selecting the images and doing the type design writing and editing the facts to fit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662261913-UQYWUPATKG4RCCZFVUJT/PW1.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662262633-PDR1FVPKZ6PCRP297R9E/PW2.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662272898-U5PME00YBJPIYPKDM5ZT/PW3.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662276360-Y8W5KDBB4Q4PE14AYC38/PW4.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662280040-KH7RSFS5WBX58DVGWOC5/PW5.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662292691-NVQ4HZ1XPYYRSAECL0GD/PW6.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662292010-YDV7GEUH6L16DT1LU452/PW7.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662313814-AHPMUP66CGN7F2F69TGW/PW8.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662313291-O8U8KAK15YBEFIX63X06/PW9.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662327169-9H9N35IKURIB1YDG420F/PW10.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662327288-33T5T0823UJ62MJR6ST9/PW11.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662344373-GYO74J7MKF3WHK6RTYV3/PW12.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662341066-ZNBKX1QUTM7PIL8OV7Q5/PW13.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662354253-N7E78EUPY9OZN26RAX7N/PW14.png Photo Ark Wonders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758662358218-FEOCS4TLIEVV74ZLI37M/PW15.png Photo Ark Wonders https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/nightvision daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/50c5ec81-3f08-4e37-a861-0a692f75a484/NightVision_3D_white.jpg Night Vision - Don’t make it dark How to compile a collection of images shot at night that isn’t “too dark” and keeps the sales team happy?

In order to whittle those down, we decided we needed to feature at least three images of each state or territory, at least one of those images would be paired with a story from a noted resident, and the entire book would be organized around geographic regions and themes from the original poem America the Beautiful by Katharine Lee Bates. Also that is Taylor Swift’s sparkly guitar, but I didn’t know that until the captions came in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730070925-837OS08PPQCKO1WAU9NS/ATB_1.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730066819-CAPXBORD9GWOFWN2JALG/ATB_2.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730082920-H3PHIJN7M9P9ROQA4WFS/ATB_3.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730087560-J981IHNCDBQR39RKBWN3/ATB_4.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730099266-B2ICESM7MGZCKJ3W68LK/ATB_5.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730105536-SXFORTA10RIFALBR64QU/ATB_6.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730114873-QNYWY5TTF4567090UDGY/ATB_7.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730121580-OXOR6748RJIA0UB3585D/ATB_8.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730140114-D6NZG3I8VGRLRJRSRYLP/ATB_10.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730141253-Z7QAU5427L8O870ISOS9/ATB_9.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730163445-CHMO7YVGM4MM6ZAN1841/ATB_11.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730197408-GMIX3B2CNRXR9WLM4MJZ/ATB_16.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730157027-KXF2CVB247X2XKVT4PNP/ATB_12.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730174352-YUHK7CZE4E7VQ98ITEMS/ATB_13.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730183682-I8BA37O9JMFMLCMDB3PG/ATB_14.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730192343-TQ1YJGI2N3K4T7ZT18R2/ATB_15.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730304570-54DN30BF3M4UUEIC2R62/ATB_18.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730301223-71LWIACKW81PRBSKYM3R/ATB_19.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730341787-7QKFZHKDAFRJQ749GS99/ATB_20.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730340834-L0UMR6ASIWXOQG5JHYOA/ATB_21.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730362681-WMWNOQW4N5ERI3A6S71J/ATB_22.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730365067-7Z16DOTITWVF02MRZCM2/ATB_23.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730378179-4JS9ZKS2L47SUX4961SI/ATB_24.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730386948-MUZ8OBDQLM4R7UWTZG4U/ATB_25.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730395093-RZ7XT2WM377LIY64EAR2/ATB_26.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730210330-0F05COGM1THPI9QXT96G/ATB_17.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730406353-TCJCO9HJQ55BU5R3OYQD/ATB_27.png America the Beautiful https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758730410292-VG7XUVZC02T3K8DWHF3S/ATB_28.png America the Beautiful https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/911 daily 0.75 2026-02-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/e5ccd96d-1024-4c2e-913b-436b0c7687d0/POR_3D_white.jpg 911 - Reflecting absence This was a tough project, and I took inspiration from the designer of the 9/11 Memorial, Michael Arad, whose memorial design (titled Reflecting Absence) occupies the original footprints of the Twin Towers. I wanted our book to showcase the creation of the memorial, and the memorial itself, but also to look back on the incredible design of the original World Trade center by Minoru Yamasaki. I ended up blending the trident design that covered the exterior of the original towers with the shape of the pools from the memorial. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735682653-PRGXMANQ3SCIM532IATY/POR1.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735678202-FKC6S4UZDJKBRE9EOLM2/POR2.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735696135-1NVWQHKLM6KGNI8A25NP/POR3.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735710031-KG3ONNSWNXX875PM82QT/POR4.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735709883-ZHC7RUT576QCZB17TMZN/POR5.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735733263-15O0QP3DE5672H2ODP0H/POR6.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735729378-6UYMOF0A8VA7B23JCFN0/POR7.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735746953-6LVBCQ3P9XV3673P2Y69/POR8.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735754857-5UU3S2RBP5O1LB83V9RP/POR9.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735763958-IT2SUPH03O7SQG7AF8LF/POR10.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735771152-3U2YI7BDVWGN1RV4ZTM7/POR11.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735788167-15W9EI1MSD3Y5IRG1GQZ/POR12.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735788276-9WS9O3UG8H53PKC93YJF/POR13.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735810426-1WC84D0N1PGQQE00MTLL/POR14.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735808151-7LB93QW4BO8YFHQ7YEEK/POR15.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735820350-C5ZNAEXXQBZJB6WO2TZZ/POR16.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735835085-VQIZ4DHCVIRVTOQ6EALH/POR17.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735838772-XLXJKCCSNJYJ3FULO0LD/POR18.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735853676-0R13ZGA49M7EG24O7ON1/POR19.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735854770-9AEDG8OWGTH9N6T9B70V/POR20.png 911 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758735866228-4R2Z0PWQ24GM7BWMIYA0/POR21.png 911 https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/imagecollection daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/e781ce43-3c1b-4905-9543-81de399557d1/NGIC_3D_white.jpg Image Collection - 150+ covers I picked this project up from another designer 3 weeks before the proofing deadline. I was given 24 hours to create the sample pages, so I slept at the office and had them ready the next morning. Photo editor Adrian Coakley and I spent the next three weeks in a panicked huddle putting together the layouts, which are arranged both thematically and chronologically. In the hours we weren’t making small, painstaking changes to the image selections and layouts, I went through over 150 cover designs and image options before the many, many stakeholders chose this critically endangered rhino as the face of the collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763061061334-3VGU7LAPJ5DVVT4ZCMSK/IC_Spread1.jpg Image Collection

companion to a traveling exhibit that toured the world, showcasing treasures from the collection of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Since books often need long lead times, the exhibit did not yet have a logo when I designed the cover—but the curatorial team liked the cover titling treatment enough that I was eventually tasked with adapting it to create a logo for the exhibit as well.

I didn’t want a book full of little yellow rectangles, so we sequestered the nitty-gritty facts about the magazine into the frontmatter, and tried to let the covers featured in the yearly breakdown speak for themselves as works of editorial design and historic relevance. I dug into the archives, researched and collected the material in the introduction about the visual evolution of the magazine, along with the features on how many times beautiful women, animals (snarling and not), mummies, and other fan favorites had graced the cover over the years. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805955441-SBTS0TAWVYSH0EV6CPUI/NGC_Spread1.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805955501-ZEJAQT7CZ95OZHGBEJK0/NGC_Spread2.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805957580-BPBV60412GALD5UNOV2E/NGC_Spread3.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805957999-87RG76A0MWTBOT91PJDQ/NGC_Spread4.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805959026-QT0GFRU8L0UJGKL8RACO/NGC_Spread5.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805959736-GHFVUE88RLZH8O78BE0C/NGC_Spread6.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805960640-CUZKMREG63O28KIJWCDL/NGC_Spread7.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805961657-71J4DI0JK2U6SJUQKF6O/NGC_Spread8.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805962375-6T3RE20UTG7T02F30Y4U/NGC_Spread9.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805963513-OFAVJJE0V7E027I6TH9D/NGC_Spread10.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805964158-0LU50EE1L6IT7BV0WHPQ/NGC_Spread11.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805965219-KY49TOHEEESM6G8PKFDE/NGC_Spread12.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805965862-XG45260KCMED77S9W0DJ/NGC_Spread13.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805967236-BO6KYZPGMGO2QZ22CKLQ/NGC_Spread14.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805967780-IF6F5R6DN2YOCDFPY5J7/NGC_Spread15.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805968857-HUVYB7UBUS11M0U9RCO6/NGC_Spread16.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805969484-BHKKCKJPN8MPGM7B3464/NGC_Spread17.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805970365-OLNJIZHB9GI4A4M3BI48/NGC_Spread18.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805970907-XADY0C5P42AHFQ0S6MJJ/NGC_Spread19.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805971904-2SWEKFFVQQC03LYJ5K7K/NGC_Spread20.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805972590-H3XX927RUUVCV2SWAO3S/NGC_Spread21.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805974725-IMHQZ80SAXG4IXXMNM5G/NGC_Spread22.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805974915-VQF0CUVUBIRCW3CL62SC/NGC_Spread23.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805976634-9FU0PZ2CHXF0X643GQK4/NGC_Spread24.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805977115-P7Y1YH38B4QIQJP0ZR55/NGC_Spread25.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805978366-O6B8Y5TCSIBCZ2H9PK03/NGC_Spread26.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805978978-IIEA1U9DMOSTMMCQ71TM/NGC_Spread27.jpg The Covers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762805980019-5TY33SVYZWSY7PTERFYY/NGC_Spread28.jpg The Covers https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/secrets-of-the-whales daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/69cfed55-e02e-4a2e-8dc8-86b23294d665/SOTW_3D_white.jpg Secrets of the Whales - Bright spot Author Brian Skerry and I put this entire book together in about 4 weeks over a series of zoom meetings at the height of the Covid pandemic. It was amazing to hear the stories behind the groundbreaking shots Brian had captured, including several rare behaviors like Belugas playing with rocks, orcas stealing from the nets of fishing vessels, and dolphins adorning themselves with leaves and seaweed. This was my last full project as the creative director at National Geographic and it will be forever linked in my mind as a bright spot in a dark time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806922844-FDPJ249KKOQ6CWBMRVZT/SOTW_Spread1.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806922976-FZZOZYIPK6NPAM2QIEQS/SOTW_Spread2.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806925330-6ZHL5GLSA9J2XMVGATNB/SOTW_Spread3.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806925556-A4PQGZAS3QMGD6U9K2G1/SOTW_Spread3b.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806927551-5CC5T0E92O1GA1A7JEV6/SOTW_Spread4.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806927961-HCTRL39RN0OWXJXG3V0X/SOTW_Spread5.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806930017-7JRY7M0NB3WZJUD0HQ3H/SOTW_Spread6.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806930723-ONHQHP04W0AN2EHA78AD/SOTW_Spread7.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806932431-69K2V8D0J769D9QL7PHQ/SOTW_Spread8.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806934320-GBPZJVPTCQPCCDX2QOOD/SOTW_Spread10.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806935990-K4FKLL2JM6ZU9RPDMKEE/SOTW_Spread11.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806938110-QUBKJ0EGSRLA93TXJSEO/SOTW_Spread12.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806939877-9VWR49LARHMJRM6VHQDG/SOTW_Spread13.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806941770-S4R3OIQEEA3Z6GHVGPX6/SOTW_Spread14.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806943970-EFGZ7WI39XKGHIIXRHFA/SOTW_Spread15.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806945578-J62HMNLRZSP08DIT2W78/SOTW_Spread15b.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806947211-H7L82ZD4DP0G2KMPR4MM/SOTW_Spread16.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806949119-TUA1DME8Y6TPLN9PEK0D/SOTW_Spread17.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762806950897-TW2Q54F04YDMIEHUI9MG/SOTW_Spread18.jpg Secrets of the Whales https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/nps100 daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/0a19e551-da63-4069-b325-738a7555c44b/NP100_white.jpg NPS100 - Centennial This book was created in conjunction with the National Parks Service to celebrate the centennial of their organization. Filled with writing from the National Geographic archives and images and relics from the National Parks, monuments, historic sites, preserves, and national recreation areas, the book is more than just the history of the parks themselves—it’s also a tribute to the men and women who identified, preserved, and continue to protect the most treasured spots in the US. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812696653-7AK81PTUCMV9DYP2MG61/NPS_Spread1.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812699888-3Q9P101Z6EAMYXBDSX15/NPS_Spread2.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812707479-HD3XOC8ANKWTEOGG9UGW/NPS_Spread3.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812713190-PES0TMQC91L774IC8GNC/NPS_Spread4.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812715960-PBRZW4J88V7E5FHVAHP3/NPS_Spread5.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812722688-QWWALZWA9874TD07T5GR/NPS_Spread6.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812723445-8G72DLNQO6QPGBRB5UKZ/NPS_Spread7.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812731436-YQ7ZXX72LU047A9KXVLM/NPS_Spread8.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812732451-ABMCMT2SER6RPDEFAPCK/NPS_Spread9.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812737527-XZ8VLP6BLTYRQDXYNZ4T/NPS_Spread10.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812734772-14G59MWRVZOE90DTIGB7/NPS_Spread11.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812737376-3Y2ALRXCAOTDITGZNXCZ/NPS_Spread12.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812739083-CT9L7V5NJD6UHY2JDMP4/NPS_Spread13.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812739538-4V16OKFV0EY368ZFGW7H/NPS_Spread14.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812740621-IYW7JVRMBDOSJB9U6KPH/NPS_Spread15.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812741382-7XSU9TRJZ9RGYDXFE5AJ/NPS_Spread16.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812742320-28VQITQVXLLC05T985TG/NPS_Spread17.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812742987-F7MF9VXP4VO9L6GQWQGB/NPS_Spread18.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812744083-912RUMX14DSYZ5DNW90S/NPS_Spread19.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812744700-7O7TBTGSTWPTCBZV9VVK/NPS_Spread20.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812745609-XU67P1LR5BGJ5S6K3KPB/NPS_Spread21.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812746185-DAVYRVZZLL4FZ7Z5UON8/NPS_Spread22.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812747524-GM2FFHSDW39C8NWLDXJC/NPS_Spread23.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812748056-9GOD9A53NWQA51WNEKQ3/NPS_Spread24.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812749385-48IGU035M8UQ3D0AEIA2/NPS_Spread25.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812749895-AVCQSLA60VPA47SKLVMF/NPS_Spread26.jpg NPS100 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762812751000-98NRNAZI4KEUI2SGM411/NPS_Spread27.jpg NPS100 https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/rarelyseen daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/ae6a09b3-5a2a-485a-af3c-c833f3b877d8/RarelySeen_3D_White.jpg RarelySeen - Rarest of the rare I can’t tell you how many arguments amongst the internal team this book spawned: over what constituted “rare”; over what constituted “life”; over whether or not the cover was cool, hideous, or preposterously phallic. (In my mind, it’s all three.) But it’s also why I now know about sundogs, that mud can boil, that there are crystals the size of trees inside underground caverns in Mexico, and that a scrap metal dealer found one of the lost imperial Fabergé eggs at a flea market. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814080098-ORSQ8V81DH43IZBNADBG/RS_Spread1.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814079982-I85TTWKJFP0AKRYWCOQ1/RS_Spread2.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814082214-FMQAAQL6FRAQA3081QI7/RS_Spread3.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814082464-J5TAZ62FJ28QCAAQPB53/RS_Spread3b.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814084651-BH0LIHOGWHUGUQ490VQE/RS_Spread4.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814084973-XPV4N6LKXV4XZ4YTQY15/RS_Spread5.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814087021-3AUEHZ9J8O8Y4LJX0T4U/RS_Spread6.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814087409-MY4BLRCS007D5WQLZZTP/RS_Spread7.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814089629-LUF88PN09K0M28VGX175/RS_Spread8.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814089842-LTYQK93Z25JNTF50KH2W/RS_Spread9.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814091828-WAGDSM5Q5EAMNKIJ5T7E/RS_Spread10.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814092169-X720AF31KXMM5R026Y2A/RS_Spread11.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814094066-FDD24B3A1XX2PZ9R84BI/RS_Spread12.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814094313-LYRG7GCHBCQ47X3N6QC8/RS_Spread13.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814096359-MI1LZ8J4S5YCZYA5PX2K/RS_Spread14.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814096984-3J3P90U7HJSEH1CL4XWA/RS_Spread15.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814098131-AOSAPB383HR108GPLLPC/RS_Spread16.jpg RarelySeen https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1762814098931-2BUTLC81UL199C4O6ACY/RS_Spread17.jpg RarelySeen https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/125th daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/c5548fe9-1426-495b-bdb5-2dd80843be4a/125th_MK_White.jpg 125th - Inside job I did not design the cover of this book—that was a group effort between our two creative directors and the publisher at the time that I wanted no part of. I did, however, design the interior long before the cover was finalized. While working on the frontmatter, I took a picture of the magazines I had shelved in my office and suggested that we use it for the title page. But we had a policy of only including images in the book that were part of the NatGeo Image Collection.

The difficulty in arranging a disparate collection like this was dispelled by highlighting the commonalities in the images, and making them speak to one another through interesting juxtapositions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903159364-BJJ8SV1VRTL052TVMJ84/Natgeo1.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903163352-C926DA7RCT932WSMXWXT/Natgeo2.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903170987-PS7HXISR9VYMJIZPLDQ5/Natgeo3.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903178689-OAW0RDPGFT61ZDOJG7YL/Natgeo4.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903190255-DHST1CC83OYH1K4SX61N/Natgeo5.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903274369-600NS6OV1U43G0BYO11J/Natgeo6.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903275899-JOGSBOCXZ7Q80DX5T359/Natgeo7.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903312267-38SILENBK8KKH6K7PIIP/Natgeo8.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903268756-I7QLXBPVAH6U4L4Y882A/Natgeo11.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903273658-RSHD44BRZ119AH5WVISP/Natgeo12.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903401849-IP1VBV6EI5BKCS3RRJYZ/Natgeo15.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903303947-UOA2A6X1JXBU9KIR1OMR/Natgeo13.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903418011-0NH5EN98CHMW0EZ7WWJ8/Natgeo16.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903310244-1EDK5Z5BZ0SKQQ4IU6QA/Natgeo14.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903418522-MLQM1OSMYKRPNKJTRIBD/Natgeo17.png NatGeo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1758903429387-1ZA3UQ9PDU2O9XTCIUJW/Natgeo18.png NatGeo https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/retronaut daily 0.75 2026-04-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/5cd60e42-f8ae-4322-9a63-13e20050b423/Retro_3D_white.jpg Retronaut - Time capsule This book—based on a blog of the same name—went through many iterations, all based upon what images we could acquire the rights to publish. It was a fun and chaotic ride, and is also why I know that 20-sided dice date back to ancient Egypt, Sean Connery came in third in the 1950 Mr. Universe contest, and Martha Stewart started out as a fashion model.

We had to wear thin white gloves while handling the originals that did very little to stave off the cold, and I remember holding a little kingfisher postcard that I was transferring into the “scan” pile and shivering too hard to read the name of photographer. But my favorite parts of this book are the seldom-seen paintings from former staff artists like Walter Weber, Allan Brooks, and Hashime Murayama. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069699555-J8YCQ2553T1F09HMRETD/TSOB_spread1.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069699446-A9RXF4B7O6I1YAY98RF9/TSOB_spread2.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069701183-OJ4GP0J0BQ21CH6P0MLF/TSOB_spread3.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069701436-VKO2DQ9Q0Y8148LTKIM1/TSOB_spread4.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069702689-QTEFGOEE6CQRLG19YJVW/TSOB_spread5.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069703242-P43ZW5SER7B6FDA9PT0P/TSOB_spread6.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069704274-WATVAI7J6L04F7LOA3UR/TSOB_spread7.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069705006-Y3Q54OCIWOTYAL96LHHV/TSOB_spread8.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069706060-3K8OT0551J4SVKZES4BO/TSOB_spread9.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069706730-KFZOM3MWYT2G6XUPVDNO/TSOB_spread10.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069707749-WLWVEDV7R41Q7S1ZPFW7/TSOB_spread11.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069708430-TXH2WEOFEX5QEQWX7MVC/TSOB_spread12.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069709376-LV9P5VVWRYDEIZLLHDEY/TSOB_spread13.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069710027-PSTWZ2EITMBTR4TRLCVQ/TSOB_spread14.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069710899-17U5G6TX2ZH64J13ILE0/TSOB_spread15.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069711828-DHZQ5BRT37CGMCU4O0T9/TSOB_spread16.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069712691-II8KUOYFDNHAC68TV7RZ/TSOB_spread17.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069713516-H2NY8BYGQJEFFAKVL0SN/TSOB_spread18.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069714401-AREEM8YX3D7N13BSH8VG/TSOB_spread19.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069715222-MK5AWB3MZA30GCTKQI9N/TSOB_spread20.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069716242-PMOMFE0AA6VUKMRG5V3M/TSOB_spread21.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069716898-VU1P0QJC7COK0VS86TOP/TSOB_spread22.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763069717766-6FOQXKRYPAVSDYSVJDSV/TSOB_spread23.jpg The Splendor of Birds https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/devoted daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/cb0bac83-5f66-418c-9175-07a3ad9a616d/Devoted_3D_white.jpg Devoted - Good dog I designed the print edition and programmed and designed the enhanced ebook for this title—the latter of which included videos, audio interviews, and additional pop-up text facts and stories.

I wanted the typography to connote the urgency of the extinction event we are currently mired in, and that combined with opening the book with extinct and functionally extinct creatures is, I hope, a real gut punch. I researched and helped craft many of the large display facts featured in the layouts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147065657-8IJHGKH2SEA9VHJ1CIJU/Van_Spread1.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147065652-58P4OVHT1EGYOOTBOQCO/Van_Spread2.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147067438-YJF0QJ19EBD6NX5GPTEN/Van_Spread3.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147067459-7D4T60SHOFH6GT2DKXAB/Van_Spread4.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147069181-KHQBSAB5EDKSJP20H1QZ/Van_Spread5.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147069433-85F7IXG2P2VBZRZ2R4EJ/Van_Spread6.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147070900-WOCYPVB71IT2CKDKE4AR/Van_Spread7.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147071282-43ZI5NM66XHXP5UGVJBI/Van_Spread8.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147072728-AQNDB64BOFIG6QPA2M7U/Van_Spread9.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147072980-KNP17A1E0C6UIGORPRIY/Van_Spread10.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147074114-J7BKJCZDUF9IE4EA46VJ/Van_Spread11.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147074613-76T7KLCEJ1VZ3F2LSCQL/Van_Spread12.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147075452-E2EBCL171NXZ4TPRYELI/Van_Spread13.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147076289-WK2GHPY4KTVKM8YDN9X1/Van_Spread14.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147076803-U32JQIBO8RC0FGK9834V/Van_Spread15.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147077556-EGW3UHP96T8CACXB4K92/Van_Spread16.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147078271-NV7SZ552ZEI9MOCLI946/Van_Spread17.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147079044-VCLG9TV7EOHLYP0D1WZV/Van_Spread18.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147079694-A8KH0BP8QKB9LID0G9VP/Van_Spread19.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147080404-GQ29FCA34MU2Q01KE50S/Van_Spread20.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147081412-6BN694BTG9FDSLAZ20CE/Van_Spread21.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147082016-8BBCD5X8036NDOU1G01Z/Van_Spread22.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147082974-P7CSMSRD47GHNXOQCDB2/Van_Spread23.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147083520-WXR10CDL7L3X5V5CN9TA/Van_Spread24.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147084510-1VHKRHW3J38W0NNG3RYP/Van_Spread25.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147085035-O173PEGZVBMPL9U1U0F6/Van_Spread26.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147085774-HOZFCF4SXULC0P1JRTQD/Van_Spread27.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147086361-UD66CN71K51662N65Z8I/Van_Spread28.jpg Vanishing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1763147087092-P3DN0ZWPIMTSKROUZD57/Van_Spread29.jpg Vanishing https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/deadly-instinct daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/34616d4a-f335-4d24-a7f4-7808a501689f/DeadlyInstinct_3D_white.jpg Deadly Instinct - “My book.” I brought the pitch for this concept to the editorial board with the idea that, if approved, they would hire someone actually qualified to write it. Instead, our editorial director decided I should write the book, and oversee the project. I was paired with a project editor and fact-checker, and spent about a solid month deciding the organizational structure, researching the archive for photos, writing chapter essays, and reading lengthy academic papers on things like botfly parasitism and tetrodotoxin to write two-line captions. The text was later adapted for the cover story of the first issue of NatGeo Wild Magazine. The book did not sell well, but apparently did gangbusters in both elementary school and prison libraries, two places where I would naturally expect to find my audience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792751221-O2VJCP6N90WO8FEEQLL2/DI_spread1.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792751194-10TIZ5SV31KVM2YEGRI0/DI_spread2.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792752947-513F2XTRKIVEMONZUC62/DI_spread3.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792753371-TGEMELENH26XRY1GTY4P/DI_spread4.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792754853-XOKIUDOZ4LD5TP7W4I3K/DI_spread5.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792755314-774BOW0QKDSEHUWGF7P9/DI_spread6.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792756917-GOT5CIZJ8P0586X8NTBQ/DI_spread7.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792757652-6VV3B729S4JCY5K7JNOM/DI_spread8.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792758412-L5IMW3CP4JTPQOJHZPZX/DI_spread9.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792759414-HVDV3D5E1UEAI3BAYWAQ/DI_spread10.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792760465-F4T103SIH4BC2KPDAAUE/DI_spread11.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792761107-6R215VL09K9MLHQ6SXPH/DI_spread12.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792761948-L1JBOPK2OOVXN69L0V52/DI_spread13.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792762537-EBJXPV0P2MEEQIX0SK9G/DI_spread14.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792763557-FAZMLQY0J5O6CK22VSQL/DI_spread15.jpg Deadly Instinct https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/1764792764124-TUB8YJ3J37DB8Q3FJ2EK/DI_spread16.jpg Deadly Instinct https://pike-point-tkcy.squarespace.com/lets-sticker daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/685041a83a430a3fc5001ea8/6394ae63-8f55-4868-bf2b-2a26106ffa97/LetsSticker_3D_White.jpg Lets Sticker - Stickers 4ever This was my first sticker book and even tho they are technically a little challenging to put together, you can’t argue with the end result: stickers!
