Meridian Records
Meridian Records is a national recording company preparing to release its inaugural album in Fall 2026. As a new label in a crowded field, Meridian has one chance to make a first
impression, and that impression will shape how fans, artists, and critics see the company for years to come. The timing is strong: independent labels now capture nearly half of all U.S. recorded music revenue, and vinyl sales have topped $1 billion, driven largely by younger listeners who want to own the music they love.
Meridian’s mission is to give independent artists a home where their work is treated as a lasting body of art and not a passing release. The label champions albums made with intention,
packages them with care, and connects them with listeners who want to own, collect, and share music that matters. Its long-term vision is to become a nationally recognized label with a distinct identity, a curated roster, and a community of fanswho trust the Meridian name before they hear the first note.
BRANDING
The mission of Strata Editions is to produce design publications that
operate at the intersection of editorial rigor and visual intelligence-
objects that are as deliberately constructed as the work they present. The imprint is committed to a format in which typographic hierarchy, spatial composition, and visual sequencing are treated as primary
communicative tools rather than secondary considerations. Content and form are developed in tandem, with each editorial decision in service of a unified visual argument.
Deliverables
Meridian Records has hired Haley Repp Art and Graphic Design to create the artwork for their inagural album suite, as well as an advertisement for display in stores nationwide. The details of the proposed designs are as follows:
