St. Hubert's new "green" packaging
If you love looking at great packaging design on blogs like TheDieline and Lovely Package (like me!), then you should really check out Packaging | UQAM. The site's curator, Sylvain Allard, is a professor at L'École de Design at L'Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). He is interested in sustainable and environmentally sound packaging design. I particularly like the Québecois Rotisseries St-Hubert's new eco-friendly packaging. They made a move away from styrofoam to recyclable materials as well as reducing the size of their containers.
Here are a few more things I like over at Packaging | UQAM...
Serif Tote Bag by Little Factory
Justin Lortie proposes a reflection on the environment.
Helvetica Biscuits by Beverly Hsu

ReplyDelete@Johanna: Québec always deserves a shout out in my books, it is after all "La Belle Province" ;)
@Kate: Ha! That's so funny!! I can't wait to get me some of that Turkey's (?) Rooster's (?) fried food - and in eco-friendly packaging no less ;)
ReplyDeleteI love that tote!
ReplyDeleteThank you Bess for your interest in my blog.
ReplyDeleteThere should be a lot of new stuff next week.
Best regards

I love the tote as well. Bess, you should develop that macaroni font you started, it combines food and typeface in a most pleasing way. And, yes, did Tyke take your head shot? He can do better, even though you come from a non photogenic family.
