Brand X Liquor Packaging

 Don't you just love this packaging concept by CSA Design? I'm really digging the pop art influences with a modern, clean twist. My favorite is the "Obsolete Vodka" with the huge cell phone. Hilarious!

Happy Monday! Hope you had a relaxing weekend that recharged you for the coming week! I was lucky enough to get away for the weekend to see some dear friends and just hit the "off" button. It felt great! Now I'm back to the world of bills, taxes, and work. But I feel ready for anything.

With that, check out this awesome packaging concept, brought to you by Happy F&B. Not only does the surface look like bananas, oranges and watermelon, but they created corresponding stickers inspired by real fruit stickers! And the paper is scented! A present to excite all of your senses. I especially love how it looks when they're all opened.

Two design students, Erin and Audrey came up with this great packaging concept for plant seeds that I absolutely adore. Besides the gorgeous visuals, what I really love is that it truly is the entire package: you get the seeds, potting supplies and labels. Wonderful! I've been doing some more research into urban gardening. Do you have any tips with the city dweller with a green thumb?

Brilliance

Mucca Design came up with some brilliant branding for a neighborhood Brooklyn-based gourmet shop. I am especially in love with the coffee cups - just the perfect amount of sass :) The next time I'm in New York City, I'll be sure to stop by this place, and will probably bring home some packaging as souvenirs.
