Packaging design

teabags

I have this thing for packaging design. I love a great mind, and care and thoughtfulness behind a great packaging design. Check these out. Tea. In same same packages, but different same. Both oh so simple but that’s what makes it so special to me at least. How about you?

So here it is a simple brown/white paper bag with washi tape with instruktions and information on it. How clever is that! I know, very right!

Baggu Spring

Baggugoldwblack

For those who know me, you know I am addicted to my Baggus.
My yellow Baggu is the home of all the cords and other nicknacks you need when toting around the Mac Air (that is sooo not heavy – the only thing is with that the number of appliances you need to bring with you = just as heavy as a Mac Book).

My golden little cutie is home of lipstick appliances at the moment. I enjoy it every time I put my lipstick and gloss on. Have you BTW read the article in Real Simple how many times you actually can put on lipstick? Apparently, if you put on lipstick three times a day – your lipstick will only last you approx. 3 months.

And now spring is here. And it just might be time to freshen up my Baggu “wardrobe”. These are my favoritesbaggupink baggugoldlarge

It is really hard to find anything by Jonathan Adler that I don’t fancy. Check this rug out. I love the pattern and the yellow color. I reeeally like a spot of yellow somewhere. It brightens the mind.

I found this rug at The Rug Company, check out their website here

Say Hello to Jonathan Adler, the extremely talented designer behind sooo many items. And while you look at this pic, take a peek at all the beautiful stuff in the background….

Scrub Dining Table

I am truly a sucker for tables (and lamps, I know, I know…). But have a look at this table; Scrub Dining Table in oak. Isn’t it beautiful? Check out the legs! It looks like they have been uprooted from the garden. Great idea to award something as mundane as a table with that wow-factor. Great job!
