TOP PACKAGE DESIGN OF THE YEAR

The 54th Cannes Lion International Advertising Festival just wrapped up and we were excited to see the winners of the “Package Design” category.  Fast Company was on hand to share the news…

Jamie Oliver’s condiment line, designed by Pearlfisher, won Gold (you know the company’s work–they designed the bottle for Absolut Vodka):

Another Gold: Gut Oggau Wine, designed by Jung von Matt:

Raison Pure also won Gold, for their work on “Flowerbomb Safe,” a fragrance by Victor & Rolf. The design manages to suit Victor & Rolf’s overriding brand aesthetic perfectly–fancy but dangerous:

One of the Silvers went to Taxi Studio, for their work on Willie’s Cacao:

Quite unlike any of the other Vodka bottles out there, Karlsson’s Gold Vodka, which also took Silver. (For some reason, grenade shaped bottles are a new trend in packaging–check out this lovely Scotch bottle.)
