Justin Colt just finished his senior year at Penn State University and sent in his favorite piece, Chip Ship:
"Concept: The theme of this project was randomly drawn from a hat that
was passed around. The challenge was to combine a line of sauces with
the theme of the 1960s. Staying away from the grassroots campaigns and
hippies movements that were typical for the decade, my research exposed
the excitement of something else very prevalent at the time; the 1960s
space race.
Design: The aesthetic of Chip Ship was derived from pulling samples of vintage newspaper articles, advertisements, and other media. A lot of inspiration was gained from the study of Bradbury Thompson and his experimentation with color and typography. One of the main goals for Chip Ship was to go beyond just a label, and to design a party experience. LED lights glow brightly, and tins of sauces are dispensed when the ship launches. Flavors Astro Radish, Solar Mint, Cayenne Comet, and Plum Eclipse feature interesting ingredients that are adventurous to sample."
