A book that looks self-published will be treated as self-published. A book that looks like it belongs on a bookshop shelf — will end up there.
At Olleke, we design books from cover to cover. That means the front cover, the spine, the back, the interior layout, the typography, and every detail in between. We work with independent authors, small publishers, and hybrid publishing houses — delivering print-ready files that meet the exact specifications of KDP, IngramSpark, Kobo and other platforms.
What we design
Cover design The cover is the first — and sometimes only — impression your book makes. We develop covers that are genre-appropriate, visually distinctive, and designed to work at thumbnail size as well as full scale. Every cover includes front, spine and back, in both print-ready and digital formats.
Interior typesetting Good interior design is invisible — the reader never notices it, they just read comfortably for hours. We set your manuscript in a professional layout with considered typography, consistent spacing, chapter openers and page architecture that matches your genre and audience.
Illustration Original illustrations for covers, chapter headings, maps, or decorative elements — in a style tailored to your project.
Print platform files We deliver files ready to upload without further adjustment. We know the bleed, margin and resolution requirements of the major print-on-demand and offset platforms so you don't have to.
Pricing
Book packages start from € 750 for a full cover and interior up to 400 pages. Cover-only design starts from € 380. Illustration upgrades available depending on complexity.
Who we work with
We work with first-time authors who want their book to compete with traditionally published titles, with publishers who need a reliable studio for multiple titles per year, and with hybrid publishing houses that want consistent visual quality across their catalogue.
We are familiar with the Dutch, English and French book markets and have designed titles for Kabouterpers, Boekendam and several independent authors.
