I recently designed this one-of-a-kind packaging for Apollo, the new release from the alternative music group Icebreaker and pedal steel guitarist BJ Cole, from Cantaloupe Music.
This album is a new version of the classic minimalist compositions by Brian Eno, Roger Eno & Daniel Lanois which they wrote for a documentary about the Apollo space missions.
The goal with the package was to create something that reflected the minimalism of the music and the austere beauty of its subject matter without being entirely literal.
A die-cut semicircle on the cover allows the metallic silver booklet within to be revealed in the shape of a half moon. The rest of the package plays off the idea of an invisible new moon which is only revealed by the text flowing around it.
