LA based design agency, Activista’s, new campaign sees artists ranging from The Beatles to Blondie sticking to the medically advised two meter distance rule to help limit the spread of COVID-19 via a number of clever design tweaks.
Social distancing is fast becoming the new norm for many of us as the coronavirus pandemic continues to unfold. Activista is putting a pop culture spin on the latest guidance in its new campaign, 6 Feet Album Covers, a website dedicated to famous album covers that employ a bit of graphic design trickery to emphasise the importance of social distancing to help stem the spread of the virus.
The reworked covers include a new version of The Beatles’ Abbey Road, where John, Ringo, Paul and George are shown keeping a more conservative distance from each other, and a particularly inspired redesign of N.W.A.’s 1988 album Straight Outta Compton, where all of the band members apart from Eazy-E are safely tucked away in separate rooms leaning out of the windows.
As self isolation continues to bite, why not give Alexa a rest and turn off Spotify for the afternoon and see how many of these great albums you have in your record collection?
