The Design

About Tomasz Stanko Albumförpackningsdesign

Tomasz Stanko Polish Radio Sessions är en albumförpackningsdesign skapad för en samling av 39 tidigare outgivna inspelningar gjorda mellan 1970 och 1991. Utgåvan innehåller sex vinylskivor, en CD-utgåva och ett 48-sidigt häfte med arkivfotografier och personliga reflektioner. Den visuella identiteten bygger på en svartvit typografisk komposition uppbyggd av bokstäverna i musikerns efternamn. Sex omslag omtolkar ett och samma motiv och bildar en modulär helhet. Förpackningen är tryckt i offset och efterbehandlad 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.
Operation Flow
Unwrap and enjoy the music.
