AHH!

Brief: Design the full packaging for a self-curated album based on a selection of personally chosen songs. The project required developing a cohesive visual direction that reflects the tone, themes, and identity of the curated track list.

The Product: This album concept explores a departure from my usual bold and colorful style. Drawing inspiration from grunge visual language, the design embraces raw textures, distressed typography, and bold graphic elements. The imagery includes photos from various concerts I’ve captured throughout the years, while the album cover is a painting I had done a year prior, adding distressed textures and effects to transform it into a completely new visual piece. The packaging reflects the intensity and grit of the curated songs, resulting in a cohesive, stylistically immersive album experience.
