Visual branding for Gowe's EP Nostalgia Forever including album artwork, CD packaging, merch, and animation.
CD Packaging
I worked with Johan Qin, an emerging violinist from Northern California, on the album cover for his debut song D (Half Moon).
Johan initially contacted me to license Instinct, feeling that the atmosphere of the artwork suited his song perfectly.
In response, I developed two album covers – one featuring Instinct, and another featuring a new artwork created especially for the song.
The new artwork – titled Half Moon – was chosen, and custom typography was added to finish the album cover.

A closer look at the certificates I designed to accompany a set of three art prints I released. The envelopes were handmade from paper that matched the colour of the art print and printed with the name of each patron.
I have since refined the front design to include a wider margin (allowing space for people's thumbs and fingers when they are holding it), edition details, and other minor improvements.
This project documents the development of three giclée art prints: Hidden, Colour Pull and World. They are printed with archival ink on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm paper, ensuring brilliant colours and perfect detail. Dimensions: 12in x 12in.
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.
