Lu Hopkins Designs

I am a final year Graphic Design student at Loughborough University. I am looking to challenge myself as a business and creative mind, and find experience in creative industries. This blog is to profile my own work, while also working as an archive of inspiring work I have collated.

Penguin Book Cover







I have entered the Penguin Book Competition and have been working on it for two weeks now. I am designing a book jacket for the novel Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, by Patrick Suskind. I am really pleased with what I have come up with and believe I have come up with a very original idea! Will post the end result when it is finally finished.

In the meantime, whilst researching into book jackets I have seen some excellent ones along the way which are worth looking at.

Final Year and new job

Finally! Back in the studio!

Currently started work on my dissertation today, as well a project I'm starting to do with improving student/local community.

Also, my job application for the role of Multi Media Head of Marketing at Loughborough Students Union was successful so lots to do with that as well!

Will update soon!

In the meantime, take a look at the new packaging for pepsi bottles. In my opinion, they look like budget superstore own-brand and are really awful!
