Problem

The client needed an album design for “Highlands” that was inspired by the themes and visuals of the book Watership Down. The challenge was to create artwork that resonated with the book’s mood while aligning with the album’s musical style.

Solution

The album design incorporated a landscape reminiscent of the natural settings in Watership Down, using a texture that evoked a nostalgic feel. This texture, combined with earthy tones and soft, muted colors, created a sense of timelessness and connection to nature. The design elements were carefully chosen to align with the album’s themes and the emotional depth of the book, while the typography complemented the overall nostalgic aesthetic.

Result

The album cover effectively conveyed the essence of both Watership Down and the “Highlands” music, resonating deeply with listeners. The nostalgic texture added a layer of emotional depth, enhancing the visual and auditory experience of the album. The design was well-received.
