Codizia

Codizia_01Codizia_02


Designed by Lavernia&Cienfuegos, located in Valencia Spain:

"CODIZIA is a fragrance developed for women who look for a quality and premium product, but at a much lower price than the top range perfumes. Its bottle tries to transmit these attributes: elegance, personality, sophistication… With its rounded shapes, the golden finished glass, and the two curved white surfaces, which facing each other, produce a light and reflection effect. The package has a design that refers to the shapes and colours of the bottle. It is distributed exclusively at MERCADONA shops."

Before & After: Cabo Wabo

"The world’s most distinctive ultra-premium tequila, Cabo Wabo®, is ready to rock a whole new look. Skyy Spirits ... today unveiled a vibrant new packaging design for Cabo Wabo Tequila that will start to appear on store shelves and in bars this summer.

After more than a decade, Cabo Wabo Tequila has received a makeover befitting its heritage. The new packaging is inspired by Cabo Wabo’s origins.

Each bottle now features clean lines and clear glass to showcase the color, brilliance and quality of the hand-crafted 100% Blue Weber Agave tequila. The glass bottle provides a fresh, modern look that is juxtaposed by a tactile label recalling a village shop deep in Mexico, where one might find rough-hewn, hand-crafted papers and items made from hammered, glimmering steel.

“The new Cabo Wabo Tequila bottle design is an achievement in contrast - blending authentic Mexican heritage with contemporary styling,” says Alexis Pagis, Senior Brand Manager for Cabo Wabo. “It continues the vision of Cabo Wabo founder and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Sammy Hagar by infusing a sense of quality and sophistication with a real shot of rock-n-roll energy.”

On the bottle, metallic foil illuminates the crest of the Cabo Wabo logo with distinct panoramas printed on the flipside of each label. These features, combined with torn edges on the neck label, offer a striking and immediate expression of vibrancy and sophistication infused with a punch of hard driving attitude that’s inherent in the personality of Cabo Wabo Tequila. The new packaging design was created by design firm Meat & Potatoes located in Burbank, CA. The firm specializes in print, packaging and advertising designs that are cutting edge and dedicated to the art of it all."

Mr. Burglar

Clever concept from London based Fantastist:

“A self initiated project to design the packaging for a whiskey bottle.

The idea: I wanted to tell the real story behind the brand through the packaging itself. Thus, Mr. Burglar is born, a brand with an attractive packaging meant to highlight an intrinsic peculiarity of high quality spirits. The central element is Mr. Burglar himself, a gentleman whose style matches the essence of the brand.

To further enhance the concept I used thermosensitive paper. Once buyer touches the label, their fingerprints become visible, creating a tactile connection with the product.”

Anchor Squirty Cream

2010082_DW_Anchor_Squirty_Cream
Anchor, the leading squirty cream brand in the UK, is relaunching in stores this month with its new look packaging:

Led by Elmwood, the new branding work reflects the unique qualities of the product – unashamedly entertaining, individual and fun. The new packaging adds a sense of unrestrained fun and entertainment to a sector of the store that has seen little activity in recent years. With cheeky, creamy faces featured on every pack, the new designs deliver great stand out on shelf, stronger branding and clearer product differentiation.

The new designs have made Anchor the signpost for the entire cream category, breaking tradition and setting a benchmark for fun, personality-filled packaging.

Anchor Assistant Brand Manager, Ed Steele, says: “Consumer research has shown that our consumers love Anchor Squirty Cream and that’s what we want to shout about. The pack now has real stand out and reflects the fun and involving nature of the product.” The packs have received great feedback from consumers, as Brand Consultant Simon Preece explains: “Our redesign gives people permission to have fun with food. It’s the perfect antidote to the food and diet controls we have today – an unashamedly fun product that consumers love, so it’s nice to see a brand celebrating and embracing its role in consumers’ lives."
