PACKAGING - m&s / amphora

As it Friday I just wanted to share a couple of snaps of something that caught my eye while shopping in Marks and Spencer before Christmas. I loved the graphic print on their Lisboa Bonita wine - created by Amphora who are design and branding consultants for the wine industry.

Also spotted in M&S and designed by Amphora...

PACKAGING DESIGN -

When I'm in a shop my eyes are drawn like a moth to a flame to colourful packaging design. Whenever I see some on a shelf I get that little dopamine thrill. And it happened to me recently with a range called Cloud Nine from Heathcote & Ivory. It mixes paisley, florals, geometrics and of course clouds in vivid pattern on a variety of products. Here are some snaps from when I spotted the range and my online research.

PACKAGING - beauty product colours

I've noticed recently that beauty product packaging has been getting evermore colourful, with designer brands all part of the 'preppy' trend. So I thought it might give us some inspiration for colour palettes. I took a few snaps in Boots and found a few others online.
