Brief: design an elevated, keepsake format for full retellings of disney’s best-loved and classic stories while maintaining integrity and recognisability of the brand. The response from retailers was overwhelmingly positive and Target requested exclusivity to the range. The demand grew, and as such the collection encompasses over 20 titles and is referred to as an ‘iconic’ series.

Coco: Big City Kitty
Written by Laura Bunting
Illustrated by Nicky Johnston
Series design by Nicolette Treanor
Brief: design a series look that appeals to young girls’ infatutation with whimsical little objects and all things lovely (and pink!) The cover is embossed with a linen texture to appeal to tactile little hands and Coco’s favourite things come alive with spot gloss.
This series look is a rebrand from the initial limited edition design of ‘Coco Big City Kitty’ which was shortlisted in the ABDA 69th Book Design Awards for Best Designed Children’s Fiction Book (co-designed by Nicole Stofberg).
