About Daria.
Book cover designer and publishing art editor, working with fiction, series and illustrated editions.
Made for the page. Built for the shelf.
I’m Daria Nika, a book cover designer and publishing art editor. For more than three years, I’ve worked in professional book design at KSD (Клуб Сімейного Дозвілля), Ukraine’s largest publishing house, creating and guiding visual work for books that reach readers across the country.
My practice spans cover design, series identities, illustrated endpapers and thematic bookmarks. I care about the first impression a cover makes, and about the small production details that make a physical book feel considered.
I do not use AI in any of my designs.
I hold a bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design from Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts. In total, I have around seven years of experience in design.
