The challenge was to visualize the music, which has a nice, warm, laid-back sound with clubby bass. The design solution has been digipac packaging to create a natural atmosphere and warm colors that draw the attention of people outside the stores. It stands in great contrast to the technical design that’s usually used for electronic music; a more atmospheric design that leads you to know what to expect when you’re buying the CD. I’m really happy with the apartment inside “Coming Home.” It shows the variety of living experiences, including the different materials used for the floor. The original intention of the record company was to create one room for each song. I’ve managed to create a symbiosis between sound and materials in the apartment.
