frank lowe record & booklet

Following our design for the Grammy-nominated and PRINT magazine awarded 5-LP box set by free-jazz trailblazers the New York Art Quartet, we were happy to design another deluxe set for Triple Point Records, by American saxophonist–composer Frank Lowe.
 
For this 2-LP set, a limited edition of 550 hand-numbered copies, we designed the gatefold jacket, LP labels and accompanying 40-page booklet. On the cover, we announced the bold, adventurous music inside by overlaying two black-and-white photographs of the saxophonist and bringing the title to life in bold, tightly spaced type, in bright red that carries through the booklet. As Frank Lowe's improvisational music was different each time it was played, we designed each page of the, 2-color book differently, while still staying within a grid.
