Cover & Interior Design Services for Professionally Published Books

Design is more than decoration—it’s the first communication between your book and its potential reader. At Synsto, our cover and interior design services focus on making that communication strong, accurate, and visually aligned with your content. Whether you’re publishing fiction, academic work, nonfiction, or poetry, our designs reflect genre expectations while offering originality and professionalism.

A book cover should spark curiosity and convey genre within seconds. The interior should feel effortless to read, consistent in style, and structurally clean. We work closely with each author to understand the tone of the work, the needs of the target audience, and the technical specifications of their chosen publishing platform—whether it’s print, digital, or both.

Design that Speaks the Language of Your Book

Every book has its own rhythm. A historical novel demands a different visual tone than a business manual. Our job is to listen to your manuscript visually to reflect your narrative’s character in design form.

Cover design involves not only the front but also the spine, back, and consistency of branding. It also includes typography, image treatment, composition, and hierarchy. Interior design involves typesetting, paragraph styling, font pairing, margin setup, and chapter layout, so your reader moves through the book without visual fatigue.

Designed for Readers and Printers Alike

Good book design sits at the intersection of beauty and function. While a striking cover helps you stand out on the shelf or online, a clean interior enhances the reading experience itself. Our designs are built for readability, genre clarity, and publishing compatibility. We follow technical standards that meet print-on-demand requirements, traditional printers, and digital distributors.

We ensure your files meet the exact bleed, trim, and resolution settings needed. You won’t have to go back and forth with printing issues. You’ll receive everything in ready-to-upload format, with optional layered source files upon request.

Genre-Specific Aesthetic, Author-Specific Identity

No two books are alike, so no two designs should be. We don't use generic templates. Instead, we begin every project with a creative brief, thorough research, and a clear understanding of your goals. Our designers tailor every layout and graphic element to reflect both industry expectations and author identity.

This is especially important in genres with visual conventions such as romance, thriller, self-help, or academic publishing. We respect those norms while finding opportunities for freshness and uniqueness. Your book deserves to look like it belongs while also standing out.

Flexible for Every Format

Our design services are optimized for multiple output formats. Whether you're releasing a paperback, hardcover, eBook, or all three, we prepare all versions accordingly. We also support bilingual books, photo-heavy interiors, and books with complex formatting like footnotes or tables.

• Paperback and hardcover layout
• ePub & Kindle conversion
• Black & white or full-color options
• Single-column and multi-column typesetting
• Design for standard and custom trim sizes

Designed for Real People

Above all, our designs are human-focused. They aren’t just decorative—they’re built for the way people read, hold, and experience books. Balanced white space, easy-on-the-eyes font choices, and page structures that invite long reading sessions. If your message is clear and powerful, our design ensures it’s received that way, too.
