“This redesign of V8’s V-fusion packaging was part of an assignment for an Advanced Packaging class. The name fusion suggests technology and science, so I redesigned the logo and packaging to convey a more high-tech and modern feel. For the packaging, I used a plus sign as the main element to reflect the positive benefits of the product and the wide variety of fruit and vegetable juices that come in the beverages. The colored gradients on the plus signs correspond to the flavors of the product.”

Gauss LED

Designed by Fastway | Country: Russia

“One year after the release of energy saving bulbs Gauss has begun to produce LED bulbs and lighting based on future technologies. A good product without appropriate packaging is like a city without traffic jams or the President without twitter.

On the basis of color temperature the package boxes are divided into cold, warm and neutral. The quantity of diods is visualised too. Bulbs and lamps are like the happy couple — always together, but need different clothes. Everything is clear and clean — no ideal homes and “New!” signs.

The big LED family members have already settled all over the supermarkets.”

COOK

A combination of wood cut illustrations and clever copy make this food packaging design stand out from the crowd. Stick-on labels provide the name of the chef who cooked the meal as well as pertinent information such as use-by dates and price.

“Working to a very tight production budget, LOVE’s core challenge was to create packaging with cut-through in a cluttered market and reinforce COOK’s position as the most respected provider of prepared meals in the UK. COOK has been supplying the nation with high quality prepared meals since 1997 and was afforded the confidence to communicate key ingredients in a way that emphasized their personality; sophisticated yet playful.

LOVE’s Designer, Emma Morton, said: “We drew on consumers’ insights into what makes a night in ‘special’ and brought them to life in an lively and engaging way. We made the dining at home ‘occasion’ our focus to draw people in. We also embraced and emphasized the fact all COOK’s dishes are lovingly handmade (by people and not machines) and reflected this in every element of the design.”

“eBay just launched a new set of reusable boxes as part of a pilot program to make shipping a little greener.

Starting in October, the company is giving away 100,000 shipping boxes to eBay sellers, and encouraging reuse.

Barracuda

Designed by Neumeister | Country: Sweden

“Input: Barracuda, a brand formerly owned by the Swedish state liquor monopoly, Vin&Sprit, felt hopelessly outdated. The extremely discrete, almost secretive, design seemed to be helping this budget-priced Caribbean Rum to fall in to absolute oblivion. Sales figures were very, very clear. The Barracuda was dying. Fast.

Output: The target group was younger than before. Those who had travelled a bit and seen something of the world, or at least wanted to. And who enjoyed unpretentious traditional rum! We choose a playful, almost Caribbean attitude with illustrations playing an important role. A kind of a bottle you might be able to find somewhere on the islands in a no-nonsense, beachside bar – at least in our dreams. The copy also put emphasis on Barracuda´s Caribbean origin.

Outcome: The barracuda swam back to surface and up jumped the sales by 120%. Not only did the Barracuda survive, it is now on a steady course up the ranking list of the most popular rum brands in Sweden.”
