Kevin Barrett Kane

Designer

Over my ten-year career I have designed more than a thousand book covers and interiors.

I am both a book cover designer and a typographer who takes great pleasure in the elegant appearance of the interior of a book. In 2015 I co-founded The Frontispiece Design Studio. My client list includes Chronicle Books, Wilsted & Taylor, John Wiley & Sons, and Stanford University Press. For my day job, I am the senior book designer at the University of California Press.

I teach at the Letterform Archive in San Francisco and find my happy place around my home in the wilds of western Colorado.
