Lou Reed “Set the Twilight Reeling”
Sagmeister, Inc., New York, New York, 1996
Description
The title song of this album talks about a new star emerging. We tried to illustrate the metamorphosis from his dark prince character to a newfound man by illustrating a deep blue tinted jewel case in combination with a very bright printed portrait of Lou on the booklet cover. Opened up, the back of the booklet, the design of the CD itself, and the tray card together form a diagram of an eclipse, the ultimate twilight. The typographic style inside reflects the content of the lyrics.
