I Still Really Love You
Creative Strategy
I Still Really Love You is an album cover design built around themes of love, vulnerability, memory, and emotional fragmentation. The central visual combines a delicate butterfly with broken pieces of glass, creating a contrast between beauty and something damaged or incomplete. The dark, textured composition and subtle blue highlights give the artwork a raw and atmospheric character. The typography and imagery work together to create an emotional visual identity that reflects the feeling behind the album.
The challenge was to visually communicate the emotional complexity of love without relying on overly literal imagery. The artwork needed to balance tenderness with a sense of heartbreak, while keeping the composition visually striking and memorable. Another challenge was combining the fragile butterfly with broken glass in a way that felt intentional rather than purely decorative. The design also needed to maintain strong readability and hierarchy while preserving its dark, artistic mood.
We created a conceptual composition where the butterfly represents love, beauty, and emotional attachment, while the broken glass represents pain, distance, and fractured memories. A dark monochromatic base with subtle blue accents was used to create depth and an introspective atmosphere. Handwritten-style typography adds a personal and intimate quality to the album title, reinforcing the emotional message. The final artwork creates a visually expressive album identity where every element contributes to the story of holding onto love despite everything being broken.
