Interesting packaging

Neue created this design, for 42 below vodka out of three 42 below vodka water billboards. This is a innovative way of recycling and creating a limited edition bag that everyone wants.


The next two packages are from a website called the dieline, it showcases packaging awards, designs from the industry and from students, with the ability to leave comments on what you think and how the package could be improved.


This is a series of packages for earBudeez, each package is for a different coloured earphone and has a different face, which portrays the kind of person who would buy that colour. They are interesting and create a point of difference I would pick these up in a shop, especially when they are sitting beside lots of boring black earphones and packaging.


This is a experimental concept based around making the product itself into the information, clearly there would be problems with making the chocolate into the shapes and the chocolate moving in the package so that you couldn't read what it said. I think that it interesting and could be developed further, to crate a compromise, use a full cylindrical shape of chocolate and etching in the lines, deep enough to read and they could be the places where it would break as well.

  1. 42 bellow is indeed slick packaging, but the knowledge that Auckland tap water was used to fill the bottles pisses me of a little bit :)

  3. Hahah Auckland tap water...

    Really cute packaging for the Earbuds.

    And I like how the chocolate is actually the shape of the letters! Would be real awkward to eat.
