Album Cover Design for Vicodownie "Cocody"
This album cover was created for the artist Vicodownie’s latest release : "Cocody".
The design merges a vibrant, modern aesthetic with a retro touch, representing the artist’s urban roots and the iconic Cocody district in Abidjan. I used a clean vector illustration style inspired on GTA famous game to emphasize the slick and stylish vibe of the project.
In the foreground, the artist stands confidently against a orange taxi car, iconic for this city. The fashion choices, particularly the patterned shirt, highlight a blend of contemporary and traditional elements. The background showcases a key architectural feature of Cocody, reinforcing the strong connection to the locale.
The choice of colors brings warmth and vibrancy to the design, while the strong, bold typography complements the overall aesthetic, enhancing the urban, polished look. The character positioning, combined with dynamic elements like the approaching figure in the background, adds depth and narrative to the composition, making the album visually captivating.
This cover successfully captures the energy of Vicodownie's music and the cultural significance of Cocody, making it a fitting visual for his artistic expression.
