Over this period, I designed more than twenty record sleeves for Rue de Plaisance, shaping a distinctive graphic universe alongside artists such as Norm Talley, dOP, Seuil, Skipson, Gari Romalis and Oshana.
and created illustrations for Rue de Plaisance's “Re-issue” series.

These hand-drawn artworks gave each release a distinctive, raw yet refined identity, echoing the label’s deep house and techno aesthetic.
