BRUTAAL
Typeface, album artwork
Concept & Design with TOYKYO
For his third album, Zwangere Guy wanted an album cover that made an impact and had a twist, with a strong nod to his home city, Brussels. Working with his photographer, Sebastian Steveniers, we created a cover that was inspired by Brutalism, reflecting the bold and straightforward style of both the music and the city.
I designed a typeface to perfectly complement the photography, achieving a look we couldn't find in any existing fonts.
BRUTAAL won both Best Artwork and Best Album at the Belgian Elektropedia Awards, a significant recognition of its creative impact. Additionally, Zwangere Guy was honored as Artist of the Year, highlighting his influence and success in the music industry.
Following this achievement, Zwangere Guy released BRUTXXL, the deluxe version of BRUTAAL.
