About this bundle

The Books & Reading Bundle is an upcoming collection of 25 bookish illustration and typography designs planned for PNG and SVG delivery.

Readers love merchandise that signals what they care about, from the tote bag carried to the library to the mug beside a half-finished novel. This collection is being designed around the objects and places of reading: towering book stacks, full shelves, open books, bookmarks, reading glasses, armchairs and quiet library interiors.

The 25 planned designs pair cosy illustrations with original typography about one-more-chapter evenings, overflowing to-be-read piles and the comfort of a good library. There are no references to real books, authors, characters or quotations, so the collection avoids the copyright problems that are common in this niche.

The palette of vintage brown, navy, cream and sage gives the set a classic, slightly academic feel that works on canvas totes, cream mugs and muted T-shirts. Every design is planned as a transparent PNG for print-on-demand uploads and as an SVG for resizing and recolouring.

Bookshops, school libraries and reading clubs are expected to find the badge-style designs useful for their own events and merchandise.

File formats

PNG (planned)
A high-resolution image with a transparent background. It is the format print-on-demand platforms expect for T-shirts, mugs and most other products.
SVG (planned)
A vector file that can be resized without losing quality and edited in vector software, and that cutting machines can read.

Frequently asked questions

Do any designs reference famous books or characters?

No. The collection is planned without real titles, authors, characters or quotations, which keeps the designs free of the copyright issues common in bookish merchandise.

Will the designs suit a library or school event?

Badge-style layouts are planned with space for an event or library name, editable in the SVG version.

Are there designs small enough for bookmarks?

Yes, a number of narrow and icon-style designs are planned that should fit bookmark and sticker formats.
