Island Songs

“It’s a passion project of mine to create a portrait of Icelandic music that’s not just what the tourist board promotes. It meant changing roles. In looking at the music from my point of view, I got to ask the questions I was interested in.”

– Olafur Arnalds, The Line of Best Fit

Island Songs LP Box

Scope

Print/Product Design

Project Description

Olafur Arnald’s ‘Island Songs’ LP
is a seven piece record. I wanted to
create a box where phones could play
music videos and printed album art
could be appreciated, all in one.

Listen here.

“It’s a passion project of mine to create a portrait of Icelandic music that’s not just what the tourist board promotes. It meant changing roles. In looking at the music from my point of view, I got to ask the questions I was interested in.”

There are 7 different sleeves, one per song on this album.

Here is the box, with the different sleeves being inserted.

Here, the phone begins playing the music video that coordinates with the album art for ‘Arbakkin’.

Here is another view of the box before & after the phones inserted.
