Welcome to The BookCase 

where storytelling meets design magic

Books have the power to transport us, my job is to make sure the journey starts the moment you see the cover.

Art Direction and Design

From high-concept YA to swoony rom-coms and unputdownable thrillers, I design covers that draw readers in. I love collaborating with editors, authors, and illustrators to wrap stories up in a beautiful package.

Illustration and Lettering

I add personality through hand-drawn type and whimsical illustrations. Specializing in contemporary romance, I create charming couples, swoony settings, and colorful details that bring stories to life.

Resources and Education

One of the things I care about most is sharing what Iโ€™ve learned and building community. Everything from practical tips, honest advice, & encouragement from someone who remembers exactly what it felt like to be figuring it all out.

Hi, Iโ€™m Casey Moses

designer, hand letterer, illustrator, & full-time book lover

Currently, Iโ€™m an Assistant Art Director at Random House Childrenโ€™s Books, where I spend my days dreaming up covers that make readers feel something and bring magic to bookshelves everywhere!

I got into book design because I believe in the power of storytelling, and I stay in it because I love collaborating with authors and artists to make something special. I believe in creativity thatโ€™s human, heartfelt, and a bit whimsical. I'm also a big fan of cozy games, handmade art, and building community with other creatives.

My work lives at the intersection of storytelling and design - thatโ€™s where the best kind of creativity happens. Whether Iโ€™m designing a series look, directing an illustrator to bring a concept to life, or crafting custom type by hand, my goal is always the same: to help books stand out and connect with readers.

Whether youโ€™re a publisher or author in need of a cover that tells your story, or a creative just starting out or looking for guidance - Iโ€™m so glad youโ€™re here! If youโ€™re into storytelling, community, and a little design magic, letโ€™s make something great together!
