The brief
A retired climber's memoir about loss in the Himalayas needed a cover that honored the gravity of the subject without trading in mountaineering cliché.
The solution
Close-up macro photography of frost on canvas, with a quiet deboss of the title. The emotional weight is carried by texture and restraint.
