​

Concept for the album artwork for Velo. An experimental and collaborative album project between the bands Friendly Fires and the Asphodells.

​

This brief - presented by Studio Outro - requested a mixture of British electronica, vintage land maps and electrical symbols. Overall it combines the experimental joy of the Friendly Fires and the vintage grungy retro style of The Asphodells. 

​

In keeping with the experimental theme of the album I explored various rich retro textures and abstract patterns full of vibrant colours. Conveying themes of freeform playfulness and joy through colours and loose shapes.
