Overview

This project aimed to establish a new art direction for an existing album – Feelings by singer-songwriter Chandler Moore, in this instance. The brief was to create a new album cover and an accompanying lyric book, focused on typography. As part of the process, I made a video lyric for one of the artist's songs.

Challenge

The challenge was to design a new visual direction for the album and its materials—one that pays homage to the original spirit of the album, weaving personal themes of grief, overwhelming emotions, and hope in a raw, intimate yet simple way, relying heavily on typography while infusing it with a fresh, relevant perspective.

Solution

Create a new album cover, lyric book and video lyric that draws inspiration from the existing album while introducing a new and contemporary artistic direction.
