A successful Book or Magazine Design must establish the correct visual tone depending on the type of content (novel, academic work, technical manual, magazine), maximize readability, and remain consistent with the publisher’s or brand’s Corporate Identity. Naturally, this highly detailed and expertise-driven work has a cost — a professional book and magazine design price. Pricing varies depending on page count, image or table density, the originality required for the cover (e.g., custom illustration), and the complexity of the pre-print preparation process. This cost is a strategic investment that elevates the visibility, professionalism, and market performance of your publication — especially in Turkey’s competitive publishing landscape.

From striking cover designs to flawless layouts, we support every step of your publishing process. Thanks to our transparent pricing model and expertise in publishing standards, we ensure your content is technically perfect, visually compelling, and print-ready.
Book & Magazine Design is the application of typography, visual hierarchy, spacing, and formatting rules to present long-form written content in the most aesthetic and reader-friendly manner.
Layout (Mizanpaj) refers to the placement of text and visual elements on a page. A well-structured layout directly impacts reading speed and comprehension:
The correct typeface, line spacing (leading), and letter spacing (kerning) ensure long texts can be read comfortably without straining the eyes.
Visual contrast between headings, subheadings, paragraphs, and footnotes helps the reader navigate the page effortlessly.
Margins and column structures guide the eye through the text, reducing reading fatigue and improving the overall experience.

For Print: We provide high-resolution, print-ready PDF files (CMYK) tailored to your printer's specific requirements (whether it's Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, or a local offset printer), including precise spine width calculations. For Digital: We convert your book into reflowable ePub and Mobi formats, ensuring the text and layout display perfectly on Kindle, Apple Books, and other e-readers.
Absolutely. We are experts in multi-language typesetting. We commonly work with English, German, and French manuscripts. Furthermore, our team is skilled in handling complex layouts, including Right-to-Left (RTL) languages like Arabic, ensuring correct ligature usage and reading flow. We strictly adhere to the typographic rules (hyphenation, widows/orphans) relevant to the specific language of your manuscript.
We don't just design; we research. Before starting, we analyze the bestseller lists in your specific genre (e.g., Thriller, Romance, Non-Fiction, Business) within your target market (US, UK, EU). We identify visual tropes and trends to ensure your cover signals the right genre to potential readers instantly while still being unique enough to grab attention. We use licensed, high-quality stock photography and custom typography to create a commercially viable product.
For magazines, annual reports, and catalogs, we use industry-standard software like Adobe InDesign. We start by creating a "Master Layout" (grid system, font styles, headers) for your approval. Once the style is set, we import your text and data, meticulously formatting long-form content to ensure readability and visual interest. We can also create custom infographics to visualize complex data within corporate reports.
