Description

The client requested a holiday gift that would hold CDs and promote the “100 Greatest Songs of Rock and Roll,” one of VH1’s programming events. In search of divine inspiration, the designer visited several Manhattan cathedrals, broke the Eighth Commandment, and through Immaculate Conception created The Hymns of the Millennium.
