uf6 Kasabian Release 14th December 2006

UF6 Designs Kasabian’s European Tour Book

London based design agency UF6 have created the Tour Book for UK indie band Kasabian, working with music marketing company Firebrand Live & WSco.

Explains UF6 Creative Director Dean Barnett; “The band wanted a Tour book that was going to be more personal visual journey than there album campaign, so we decided to deconstruct Kasabian’s visual history. Playing with memorabilia & backstage images, we created a DIY landscape, evolving the original photography with scribes and hand drawn geometrics to reflect the decadence and raw energy of the band.”

A Q&A style interview by Siobhan Grogan provided context for the typography. The Tour Book also has an insert containing the ‘Empire’ album lyrics; this is the first time the lyrics have been printed anywhere.

UF6 are London's untold visual antidote; at home in Shoreditch, with clients in Tokyo, NY, LA, and Europe. A compact, impact design consultancy, UF6 provide creative, art direction, design and production for film, TV, new media and print. For broadcast, previous projects include re-branding of music channels Kiss & Kerrang for EMAP Performance TV; programme branding and motion graphics for T4’s Hit 40 UK, Five’s ‘Michael Jackson’s Mind’, ‘Robbie William’s Secrets’, ‘Make me a Supermodel’ and Bravo’s ‘Towers of London Documentary’. The impact of their graphics package for Bravos' ‘I Predict A Riot’ was pronounced as the new visual standard for all prospective Flextech productions.
