album cover

another part of the project was to design an album cover. and because these cd's will be compilations i decided to number them like the now cd's e.g now 41, now 42 etc... so i decided this album would be silent sheffield 1 or 01. when looking for inspiration for the album cover i was thinking about the chevrons used in the corporate identity and thought of peter savilles work for the hacienda so researched this and created my own versions ... i liked the idea but the bright yellow and black or orange and black chevrons werent working as well as i'd hoped so i ended up having black chevrons with an orange label and think this works a lot better, these could even be made to look better with a print finishing technique such as spot varnishing or embossing.
