The album cover for Remnants of Light by Needlepoint features a black-and-white hand-drawn illustration with a folk-art aesthetic. A barefoot figure, dressed in loose clothing, sits on the ground surrounded by scattered leaves, resting their head on one hand in a contemplative pose. Around them, several crows gather, seemingly engaged in an interaction with the leaves. Behind them, bare trees, a stone wall, and a distant village. Above, a vast flock of birds forms a flowing pattern in the sky.

The album cover for Aether's Trans-Neptunian Objects features an abstract, cosmic-inspired design. A textured teal-green background fades into a darker, almost black lower edge, evoking a deep-space or underwater aesthetic. Delicate, thin black lines crisscross the image, connecting small black dots, suggesting orbital paths or celestial mechanics. Two prominent spheres—one dark and the other a rusty red—anchor the composition, resembling planetary bodies or distant celestial objects.
