【BEND THE LINES】
Inspired by the core slogan “Bend the Lines” from Qiu Fengze’s latest album Lines, this design embodies the spirit of challenging norms and breaking boundaries.
The pink “Bend the Lines” typography runs through the central design, symbolizing the album’s message of defying rules and transcending limitations. The black and white stripes layered above represent order and established conventions in reality. As the pink line cuts through the multiple intersecting tracks below, it creates a sense of tension and breakthrough. The overlapping ribbons and intersecting lines convey a visual clash and transformation, expressing how rigid boundaries can shift and reshape when challenged.
The striking contrast between pink and monochrome not only enhances visual impact but also echoes the core spirit of the album — discovering the extraordinary within the ordinary, reshaping the “lines,” and finding one’s own unique direction.

【FIND YOUR WAYS & SOUND YOUR WAYS】
Lines serves as both a guide and a metaphor for life’s paths and choices. At the crossroads of these lines, only courage can lead the way forward.
The design incorporates street symbols such as crosswalks and road signs, evoking the imagery of life as a journey. The minimal lamb silhouette — also a key character in the Lines album — represents more than a cute figure. It symbolizes the inner child, reminding us to stay pure and brave in the face of the unknown, to hold onto our original intentions, and to keep walking our own path.
