Information

When approached by the band to design a tight-budget record sleeve for their album, Todojunto opted for a unique approach by creating a foldout design that serves as both a record sleeve when folded and a large poster when unfolded.

Design

Taking inspiration from concrete and visual poetry, the studio designed the layout in a broken and expanded style while keeping the experience of unfolding the sleeve in mind. The typography was set in typefaces from Vevey-based type design company Swiss Typefaces, with Swiss Works used for the reading texts and a deformed version of Swiss Int' used for the titles. In addition to the typography, the sleeve features illustrations scanned from an old encyclopaedia, inspired by the album's lyrics.
