This redesign of Atomic Habits takes inspiration from the book’s core message: that tiny changes lead to remarkable results. After reading the book, I explored the world of coding — specifically binary code, which mirrors the book’s philosophy by being built entirely from small, simple parts that combine to create complex systems.

The background of the cover is constructed using the binary code translation of the book’s title. With only subtle color changes to the binary digits, I created a visual structure that reads differently depending on the viewer’s distance. From far away, a hidden message appears — "A bit" — playing on both the idea of small habits ("a bit at a time") and digital bits as the building blocks of code.

This visual play acts almost like an optical illusion, encouraging the viewer to engage with the cover more intentionally — just as the book encourages readers to notice and build small habits that shift behavior over time.
