Grammy Award_Winning Album Cover Design: The 90s
As far as cd packaging design goes, the 90s was the decade in which the 'box set' made its award-winning debut at the Grammys. Further, non-standard sized multidisc cases accounted for 3 of the 10 awards given for Best Recording Package. CD Designers in the major label and the independent music industry had started thinking beyond the standard jewel case packaging design.
