Wildflowers grow through the broken concrete floor of a vast, abandoned factory.

The brief

One identity.
Individual stories.

The final nine collections complete a song-specific artwork assignment for Diablo Cipher. The visual direction called for distinct, cinematic compositions with no embedded titles, logos, or interface elements.

The images move from kitchen intimacy to storm roads, industrial growth, open landscapes, and a guarded doorway. Their shared atmosphere holds the collection together without repeating one scene across the catalog.

The finished collection

A world for every song.

From image to website

Designed for
three contexts.

Each approved composition was prepared as a 1600 × 900 WebP hero, an 800 × 800 WebP tile, and a 1200 × 630 JPG for social sharing. The crops carry the same subject into the different spaces where listeners encounter the music.

  1. Match the song. The source manifest ties each official title and identifier to its three exact image filenames.
  2. Check the delivery. All 27 files were decoded and checked for dimensions, format, integrity, and distinct file hashes.
  3. Verify the live result. The nine song pages, card artwork, and social image references were checked after production deployment. The other 21 catalog records were preserved.

This case study presents the approved final-nine collection. The artwork is live in the Diablo Cipher music catalog.
