THE DISSOLVING PLASTIC BAG

Saturday, February 27th, 2010 by Jon

From a range of environmentally minded packaging designed by Cyberpac. When the bag in this film dissolves all that is left is the printing ink, and apparently the water is drinkable once the bag has dissolved. The range is called Harmless and champions other forward thinking environmental packaging.

UCLAN graphics student Alex Creamer emailed TDOD with his 2nd year packaging project he produced last year. Currently on placement in London with a number of other UCLAN students, Alex has managed to get his work featured on the great packaging blog Die Line

Take care.

THIS IS YOUR M&S

Sunday, July 12th, 2009 by AndyB

Open up a £1 M&S cheese sandwich and marvel at the slight of hand and eye.

By simply shearing a square, in this case cheese, along 45 degrees and then slightly off setting the contents it gives the illusion of having more filling when displayed on the shelf. 

That’s marketing for you.
