Best cover design (2024)

We genuinely enjoy this process, even though it’s a tough decision to make. Selecting the best cover from these impressive entries poses quite a challenge. A cover plays a crucial role, much like a website’s landing page; it must grab the reader’s attention within seconds. This is especially vital for consumer and commercial magazines, where an eye-catching cover can greatly influence sales. Bold designs, vibrant colours, the presence of a well-known celebrity, and just the right amount of intriguing information—these are key factors our judges will take into account.

After careful consideration, we’re excited to announce our nominations for publications with outstanding cover designs. Listed in no specific order – Top 10.
