Good Thing (5th Anniversary)
The goal of this project is to redesign an LP album cover that captures the essence of any chosen artist and their music. My chosen album is Good Thing (5th Anniversary) by Leon Bridges. His music fuses ‘60s and ‘70s soul and country sounds with contemporary structures. His modern takes on old-school sounds allow him to dig into his roots while simultaneously presenting a timeless quality that appeals to new and younger audiences as well.
The orange color scheme and repeated solid shadow drop nod to the ‘70s soul aesthetic. The illustration style presents a more contemporary feel with its use of negative space that forms Bridges’ features. The typeface also lends itself to both aesthetics, being a clean sans serif with circular counters and sharp apexes.
