Our mission is to shine a spotlight on the visual elements that enrich the auditory experience, bringing to life the profound connection between sound and design.

Our Vision

At Hard Format, we believe that album covers are more than just protective sleeves for vinyl records or digital art; they are a vital part of the music itself. The marriage of imagery and sound creates an immersive experience that can convey emotions, tell stories, and evoke nostalgia. Our curated platform aims to honor these creative endeavors and the artists behind them.

Curated Content

Our team of passionate curators meticulously gathers the best examples of music design from various genres and eras, showcasing how cover art has evolved alongside the music. Whether it’s the psychedelic graphics of the 1960s, the minimalist designs of the modern era, or the compelling narratives told through photography and illustration, we aim to present a diverse and engaging selection.
