Continuing our series on creative product packaging (see part I here), we’ve handpicked another brilliant collection of unique and clever packages. Product packaging design is nothing new – it’s a sphere where function meets design. We might not be aware that the gum wrapper or milk carton is, in fact, a design piece, enriching our interactions with the product every time we use it. That’s were packaging innovations came in play. As we’ve already talked before, we are not as smart as we tell ourselves we are. 98% of us would grab a product with the shiniest and the most creative packaging on a supermarket shelf, but not the one that has the best characteristics.

So, from a marketing standpoint, it is much more expensive to have a good product in a lame package (and not sell it) than spend money on a good industrial designer. So once again, let’s learn from these creative gift packaging and product packet examples below. 1.

I bet that even the simplest milk package standing in your fridge took many hours or even days to get its final shape. Strangely enough, because most people judge a product by its packaging, the packaging can cost even more than the product itself. In the end, almost any mediocre product packed in a fancy package would win against the best product in a lame package. Here are 25 creative packaging design examples that would definitely make you want to buy these products.

To be more specific, let’s have a look at creative Logos With Hidden Messages. As we wrote earlier, the first feature of a good and effective logo is that it can immediately “grab” viewer’s attention. A good way to do so is by giving viewers a little puzzle to solve.

UK-based photographer Sharon Johnstone uses her macro lens like a key to open the fascinating world of little things. She comes back with a beautiful collection of macro photographs showing tiny drops of dew on dandelions. “With macro photography I escape to another little world. I love exploring the tiny details in nature that often get over looked.
