We created the visual branding for Gowe's 2020 EP Nostalgia Forever including album artwork, CD packaging, merch, and animation.
CD Packaging
Custom typography for an album cover. This type matches the style and placement we developed for Johan's first release, Half Moon.
We worked with Johan Qin, an emerging violinist from Northern California, on the album cover for his debut song D (Half Moon).
Johan initially contacted us to license Instinct, feeling that the atmosphere of the artwork suited his song perfectly.
In response, we developed two album covers – one featuring Instinct, and another featuring a new artwork created by Herm the Younger especially for the song.
The new artwork – titled Half Moon – was chosen, and custom typography was added to finish the album cover.

The Chosen Artworks
Album cover for Breaking Habits by Michael Barnum. We also created physical packaging for the CDs and worked with Felix von Líska on an animated version.
