This album is by 'Frank Ocean' and is titled 'Pyramids' released in 2012
1. This design has some differences as well as similarities to the design for 'Vampire Weekend' album cover. The simplicity is something they both have in common as one image has been used which relates to the title of the album. I like how similar colours have been used for the album cover as well as the image and text used, which helps to compliment the entire album. The colours used are somewhat neutral.
2. The artist name and title of the album have been written in the same font and colour and size. The first part of the artists name is the same colour as the album title, while the second part of the name has been written in orange. This could have been done so the name and album title are both still easily differentiated. I like this technique as I think it works well with the proportion and balance of the cover. Everything placed on the album seems to be well balanced.
3. The title of the album has links to the image used on the album cover. The title 'Pyramids' has been reflected through the image, which is very effective. The fact that the colour used in the second part of the artists name is the same colour used as 'blood' in the pyramid shows that the album identifies and represents him and also reflects his feelings and emotions.
