This is what they went with…
Interesting. Sunny? do you remember your photo idea of a bulb in an white room? hmmm.Also interesting, the style seems to be trying to immitate lino prints. Renee? do you remember when you made them their first logo design from a lino print?
Lesson learned. Always write up the design contract first.

This business card was mostly a joke done before fauxbotic design was truely created. a linocut was used on an old photograph i had purchased from an antique store forever ago. the linocuts were also used to make a tshirt and in the process of etching the linolium i took a chunk out of my left hand pointer finger. this design left me with a {tiny} scar, so i feel it carries more weight than other un-physically-altering ones.
more work coming soon!

ok, so we got hired to do an album cover for this band for an EP they were doing and gave us some ideas for covers, etc. that were pretty much rip-offs of other peoples’ stuff. they liked propaganda posters (shephard fairey/obey) and the colors red, white and black (every white stripes album).
after shooting down our first “creative genius” idea, we came up with this elaborate (but simply executed) idea involving russian minimalism of the 1930s, etc. and put it to use with a slightly altered color scheme and came up with something we were rather proud of.
the band did not end up going with this design. for reasons i will abstain from mentioning here, they opted to do their own work. the result was… well, you can be the judge of that. we will post that once it is released.
hard feelings aside, this band really does have some talent. you can check out their music at myspace.com/thealibidistrict.
here is our design:
