Monokuro Boo
New Packaging Design, p.180 Janice Kirkpatrick / Graven Images |
I've heard that a big reason for Hello Kitty's popularity is that, without a mouth, her expression is up to the interpretation of the viewer. Are you sad? Hello Kitty is sympathetic. Are you happy? Hello Kitty is happy with you. Etc. The Monokuro mascots seem to follow a similar principle. Depending on your mindset, the piggies could look mischievous, playful, conspiratorial, or anything else. Personally, right now, the black one's hollow white eyes are kind of creeping me out, but maybe I've been staring at these two too long.

Heart Wood
Communication Arts, Sept/Oct 2010 Design Annual; p.150 |
Heart Wood is a South African based company which delivers attractively packaged saplings as an alternative to giving cut flowers. The concept appeals to me, but if you're the sort that gets flowers a lot then you might end up with a small forest! The brown and green packaging is both natualistic, and reflects the colors of the trees they deliver.
