Classical CD Packaging

Beethoven Notes Sample

Beethoven Notes Sample

This school assigned project was to design the packaging for five separate composer’s works that would be sold in a series. This project also required to be environmentally friendly in some way. I was first inspired by actual notes and handwritten notation of the composers themselves.

Beethoven Sound Wave - "Sonata in A Major"

Beethoven Sound Wave – “Sonata in A Major”

My concept also included the mixing of both traditional and nostalgia with modern technologies to create a juxtaposition of elements. The above image shows a sound wave taken from Beethoven’s “Sonata in A Major”, with his name hidden amongst his composition. Typeface being used is Elenovire.
