KYLIE TENSION
CAMPAIGN DIRECTION & DESIGN

With its finely honed pop sensibility, the album called for a visual world that felt dazzling, hyper-saturated, and (as with all of Kylie’s work) iconic.

Beginning with the artwork for the album’s anthemic hit single ‘Padam Padam’, we developed a visual and graphic language that carried across the full campaign – spanning artworks, merchandise, visualisers, live shows, and more. 

Our wide-set ‘Padam’ wordmark is used across the entire Tension universe – sitting alongside our Kylie ‘pulse’ logotype on the album cover and appearing throughout our designed merch.

Coinciding with the Tension launch, we also designed and animated a suite of lyric videos, featuring bespoke type and motion treatments for standout tracks from the album.

For Kylie’s follow-up release, Extension (The Extended Mixes), we designed and produced an elevated 2LP package – featuring a gatefold sleeve with custom colour separations in neon pink and green, metallic detailing, and matching splatter vinyls.
