Synopsis
This project creates a vinyl cover for an imaginary band album inspired by Apple's Chicago typeface from 1983, featuring a complete album cover, inner sleeve, and record label.
This collaborative project involves creating a vinyl cover for an imaginary band album, inspired solely by the Chicago typeface. This typeface was designed for Apple's computer interface in 1983. The name 'Insert Disk' echoes the action of inserting a floppy disk or pulling out a vinyl record. The band name, Chicago Pangram, draws from the typeface's name and its display during touch-typing. The color scheme and aesthetic are influenced by Apple's Finder app to honour Apple's legacy and its connection to the Chicago typeface.
The project's deliverables include a fully designed vinyl album cover, which comprises the cover, inner sleeve, and record label.
