An album · GPT Image 2.5 SunburstTeethRead the exact prompt
Create a finished square album cover, in a 1:1 aspect ratio. Produce the front cover artwork itself, without a vinyl sleeve, jewel case, shelf, or room mockup.

COVER TEXT

Artist: Split Lip
Title: Teeth

ART DIRECTION
Interpret the supplied brief in Italian Futurist Typography style.
Visual vocabulary: words at multiple orientations — diagonal, vertical, radiating; extreme size contrasts between words within a single composition; onomatopoeia as visual object — BANG, RUMBLE, CRASH; white space used dynamically as a field words move through; no conventional reading order — the eye chases meaning.
Lettering direction: mixed typefaces within a single work — grotesque, italic, bold, light; text IS the image — no separate illustration; direction of reading changes within a single line.
Suggested colors: black and white principally; occasional red for emphatic words.
Composition: words scattered across the full field; centrifugal energy.
Atmosphere: loud, kinetic, aggressive, speed-obsessed, noise made visible.
Keep out of the design: conventional horizontal reading order, uniform type size or weight, decorative illustration, artificial yellowing or ageing.
Apply the visual language to the supplied brief; do not invent historical affiliations, endorsements, or extra copy.
