My Floppy Disk Ate My CD: Retro CD Packaging

January 21st, 2009 by: Lambert Varias

Web and graphic designer Adam Faja (“I pronounce it fay-juh”) and his other graphic designer friends swap compilations annually.  Adam created this sweet retro packaging for his 2008 compilation CD:

I can’t even remember the last time I saw a 5¼ floppy. To make it even more retro, Adam printed the track list using a typewriter-like font:

Nice. I guess we know who “won” that year for best compilation. All we need’s some Ice-T and we are breakin’.

Pair this sleeve with the floppy CD-R and you’ll open a warp hole to the 80′s. Let’s not do that.

    Fantastic idea — I love it! Brings back memories of playing computer games back when I was 6 or 7.

    I like that you’ve given it the paper sleeve to sit in as well.

    Shame! Only one punch – 50% disk space wasted… ;-)

    Loved the Idea. :)
