For my front and back covers I used images I found of New York city, one old and one new, in the background which I divided down the middle. I used old and new style fonts for the title which I arranged on each corresponding side. I put the word 'old' on an angle to give it a fluid look, and left the word 'new' horizontal to give a mechanic, uniform feeling. I desaturated both images and decreased the contrast in tones as I felt that it worked better compositionally, as to not detract from the booklet's title. The font I used for 'Old' was alot more detailed and interesting than the font I used for 'New' as the background of the old half is a lot less detailed than the background for the new half which creates a nice balance between the sides.
