把大写字母的字宽强行拉高小写r和a,制造笔画变粗的怪异感。
观察
封面以深蓝紫铺底,中央是蓝绿色的人头剪影,闭眼弧线极简;头部插着多根彩色电线,末端用黑色胶带固定。标题用白色宽衬线大写,'DREAMS'被单独放大占满第二行,作者名用黄色小字压在下方。顶部密集排列黄、白、紫三色广告语,左上角有出版方标识。
设计逻辑
标题和摘要指向1963年Macfadden Books平装本《梦的科学》,封面设计来自Paul Bacon Studio,字体使用Hellenic Wide的unicase设置。设计者把缺乏小写形式的大写字体强行缩放,以此表达书中'用脑电波测量睡眠者'的科学实验感——电线、胶带和闭眼人头共同对应标题中关于梦境研究的科学叙事。
可借鉴的做法
用无表情的人头剪影承载科学仪器(电线、胶带),把抽象主题转译为可识别的装置;标题字体可借用缺小写形式的宽衬线,人为拉高小写字母与大字匹配,制造笔画粗细不统一的怪异节奏。

The designer must have scaled up the lowercase r and a to cap height themselves. It shows: strokes end up thicker than in the capitals. A second printing from 1968 features a different, uncredited cover. Instead of showing a sleeping person whose head is wired for brainwave measurements, w
