Yndi – Noir Brésil album art

In 2021, Yndi Da Silva (formerly know as Dream Koala) released her first LP under her real name: Noir Brésil. The record was a way to introduce her new musical direction as well as reconnecting with her personal roots, both French and Brazilian. Accompanying the project, a new visual identity for the artist was unveiled.

Imagined by Pauline Laudet and Amalia Laurent, the record cover is an eclectic collage of Yndi’s face, paintings and illustrations by the two artists and animations stills from several students from the renowned animation school Les Gobelins (some of whom were eventually involved in producing musical clips for the record). All the written information from the record ise appearing on an obi strip, à la Japonais, designed by Alice Ito from H5 studio. It came in several limited variants (chrome, color gradients, transparent…) depending on where the record was distributed. On the obi, while the album title is set in Voyage, YNDI’s name, the tracklisting and credits are all set in SangBleu OG Serif. SangBleu OG was also used for subsequent promotional material following the release like tour announcement.

SangBleu OG Serif is part of the SangBleu OG family, available from Swiss Typefaces.
