Aladdin Sane: 50 (2023)
To celebrate 50 years since the iconic Aladdin Sane cover, The Duffy Archive and Rocket88 created a book exploring behind-the-scenes of David Bowie's most well known portrait. Design re-interprets motifs from the album: the cover takes 50 never-before-seen photos from the shoot and sets them in the shape of the ‘flash’; contemporary inline typefaces reference Duffy’s use of an inline serif for the album’s title, and the infamous red and blue is updated for striking chapter openers.
