Synopsis

Graphic design is one of the many design disciplines, which is visual and 2 dimensional. It provides pre-print solutions by organizing the main two elements, which are type and visual. While graphic design’s aim is presenting a product or a service, album cover as a graphic design product protects the recorded medium and presents the music or the musician. In most of the graphic design products verbal messages are must haves and need to be part of the analysis with their two dimensionalities as readability and appearance. The aim of this paper is to analyze a series of graphic design product to find a translating system between different disciplines, which are graphic design and music. The 13 album covers of the British post-punk band the Cure was chosen and analyzed to find how a musical style or a musician’s self can be presented visually.
