Shoe Carton?

So someone has come up with a way to protect not only the environment through recycled packaging but also a way to protect your footware at the same time. This nifty idea is based off of an egg carton design used with the same spongy material that is used as a cushion. Because of it's design it is stable enough to be stacked and the contouring design saves space.

Collective Package Design from JAPAN

These designs from a collection of sweet enticing stores in Japan are simple, clean, and delicate. The packaging is done in a way that makes you not want to open them for fear of ruining them. They are so pretty that that could be collected and used as a decorative statement in your home or your desk at the office. Lovely.

Appetizing Packaging


I'll reiterate from a previous post.... Clean design is something I'm attracted to. Clean, open space with well chosen type and saturated color that gives the design a bit of a high contrast effect catches my eye and this is something that all of these designs have. For a product such as a drink to be packaged in something that looks clean is important as well as having a big bold picture of a thirst quenching image on the product. Appetizing design.


Color Texture and Allure....

I love this image. I actually forget what site I got it from and what all the mediums are that were used, but I find it to be gorgeous. The colors, the blending of warm colors, the effect of the high contrast, and most of all the texture stands out to me and grabs my attention. For me texture and color are alluring. It will pull me in every time.

More Effective, Clean Logos



These logos I feel, are what I call smart logos. These are sophisticated thought out logos that play into the name of the company. You can look at all of these logos without there signature next to it and get an idea of what the company is about.
