ALBUM COVER | Chora, Princesa!

O álbum “Chora, Princesa! – Um Painel do Choro Contemporâneo de Juiz de Fora” é, sobretudo, um documento que registra, entre 1997 e 2019, um pouco do que se tem feito de Choro na cidade. Para a capa e seus desdobramentos, buscamos usar elementos reconhecidos como parte da identidade de Juiz de Fora. A paleta de cores é uma adaptação das cores da bandeira, e a ilustração faz referência ao estilo predominante em suas construções históricas, o Art Decó, além de representar partes desses prédios e até as luminárias de uma das principais ruas do centro.

The album “Chora, Princesa! - Um Painel do Choro Contemporâneo de Juiz de Fora” is, above all, a document that registers a little of what has been done about Choro in the city of Juiz de Fora (Brazil) between 1997 and 2019.

For the cover and other artwork, we used elements that are part of the identity of Juiz de Fora. The color palette is an adaptation of the flag's colours, and the illustration refers to the predominant style in its historic buildings, Art Decó, in addition to representing parts of these buildings and even the lamps on one of the main streets downtown.

CUSTOM LETTERING FOR THE TITLE AND DATES

All of the text in the cover was drawn especially for this project and exported as a font file for better flexibility on adapting the artwork to different formats such as the round disc.

36 DAYS OF TYPE - 2015

In 2015 as a part of the project 36 Days of Type, I decided to design each letter of the alphabet, all the 10 numbers and the ampersand in a lot of manners, so I could try different technics, ranging from the pure diital, to the mix of analogic items to add a special look to letters. Some of them use external elements to the letter, and some are very foccused in constructing a nice shape.

Chicundum is a poster/magazine, made by the clothing online store Chico Rei. The content is varied, always created by different writers with fresh perspectives about life and the possibilities of this amazing world we live in. For this edition, that focused a lot on personal journeys, projects and traveling, I was invited to created a poster and the illustrations that go with the content.

ALBUM COVER | Tiago Sarmento

BOHO, a vocabulary abbreviation much in vogue lately,comes from the lifestyle of the gypsy culture, which French romantic artists very much admired, inspired and thus named their lifestyle of Bohemianism: nomadic, wandering, simple, passionate about life and unconventional. Extrapolating these words and finding their synonyms, we come to the vagabond, eccentric, exotic correlates; at last, free. This is all present in Tiago Sarmento's 20 years career as a musician, as a celebration, nothing better than his 5th studio album being named BOHO. Based on this information I was invited to create the album cover, with a research into the visual universe that involves the artist's creation we came up with an ornate lettering inspired by boho prints full of arabesques and floral patterns as the main element.
