Freddy Taylor, one of our designers has revealed what he is currently looking at;
Grandpeople are a Scandinavian design company specializing in ideas, visual communication, illustration and photography. They have a real eye for colour, typography and art direction.
The New Wine – Waves
Grandpeople have designed this CD cover for the debut album “Waves” by The New Wine. The wood resembles the bands move to a darker more organic sound while the PVC film is representative of the band’s truer catchy pop vibe as well as, of course “Waves”.
A concept incredibly well executed.
TAQ – Light Drawings
The Alexandria Quartet’s new material has taken on a darker edge, coloured by the dark, rainy clouds and the harshness of Norwegian winter. Grandpeople wanted a look that reflected this new musical direction, which led them to use a combination of illustration, handmade textures and photography, shooting the band in a dark studio setting.
