The Design

About Tomasz Stanko Albumemballasjedesign

Tomasz Stanko Polish Radio Sessions er et albumemballasjedesign laget for en samling av 39 tidligere uutgitte opptak gjort mellom 1970 og 1991. Utgivelsen inneholder seks vinylplater, en CD-utgave og et 48-siders hefte med arkivfotografier og personlige refleksjoner. Den visuelle identiteten er basert på en svart-hvit typografisk komposisjon bygget opp av bokstavene i musikerens etternavn. Seks omslag nytolker ett motiv og danner en modulær helhet. Emballasjen er trykket i offset og ferdigstilt med matt laminering.

Inspiration
Tomasz Stanko - Polish Radio Sessions brings together 39 previously unreleased recordings from 1970-1991. The visual concept is based on the idea of a master's mark, a distilled signature of the artist. A black and white typographic composition built from the letters of his surname turns typography into form and rhythm. Six covers reinterpret one motif, forming a modular whole that reflects the tension and focus of his music.
Project Duration
The project began in March 2025 in Warsaw and Lodz and was completed in October 2025 in Warsaw and Lodz. The box set went on sale in November 2025.
