the part of design that is the most fascinating to me (more than type) is branding or identity design. through this all aspects of a project or a compay have elements that connect it all together. going through my album artwork in itunes, i realized many artists make their singles or EPs relate back to the full length album that preceeded them. here are a few of my favorite album brands that i have seen:
Air - Pocket Symphony / Once Upon A Time / Mer du Japon
Battles - Mirrored / Tonto / Atlas
Daft Punk - Human After All / Robot Rock / Technologic / The Prime Time of Your Life

Hot Chip - The Warning / Over and Over / Boy From School / Colours
M83 - Before the Dawn Heals Us / Don't Save Us From The Flames / A Guitar And A Heart / Teen Angst
Mylo - Destroy Rock & Roll / Doctor Pressure / In My Arms / Paris Four Hundred

Soulwax - Nite Versions / NY Excuse / E-Talking / Any Minute Now
enjoy.

Belle and Sebastian and the Smiths also make all their singles/EPs/LPs match in artwork. Smiths and Morrissey albums always have the title in quotations, too, which is kind or weird. Except for Ringleader of the Tormentors, and I don't know why.
if you scroll down fast using your arrow key, some of those designs do weird things to your eyes
Nice. BTW, join the revolution...
