What was the societal impact of the CD when it arrived?

Souterrain Records is a music label that is going to use only this musical support to produce the music of its artists. Through the release of the album Six pieds sous terre (“six feet under”), the label will demonstrate how we can create an experience with this object.

The publication includes several formats – a compact disc, an essay and a scarf; the type selection is eclectic as well. Nevertheless, the whole gives the impression of unity because everything is done in a similar red-black-and-white color palette.

Hungry for More is a First We Feast mini-documentary series that chronicles the stories of chefs, home cooks, and entrepreneurs that represent the new vanguard of the food world—hustlers who have carved out their own lanes – all while bringing comfort to their communities and beyond.

This show is all about food, community, and place – and not restaurants as a business. I wanted for this project to feel familiar, like a plate of comfort food, or your neighborhood go-to restaurant, like watching a Super 8 of yourself.

I wanted to have a balance between elevated but still urban and casual combining the handwriting with the extremely condensed yet bold typeface, Nein by Extraset. The system is cohesive and capable of flexing in many different directions to create all the assets for the show such as lower thirds, location cards, b-roll cards, and mortise.
