Apfleminze goodness
Haha some more international stuff. This time it's some apple mint tea my mom brought home from Germany. She had brought two teas this one and another, they both are apple something, and both are loose leaf but I opened this one first because it caught my eye. This is definitely the normal bag type for tea, closing with a fold and a tie at the top and the normal triangular shape. but the cool thing about it is the subtle vertical lines that are on the paper which adds a delicate interest to the bag with out going overboard. The label also uses the subtle shapes in the background to draw the eye with out making it an eye sore. This same design is used in the box which is placed at the top as sort of grid placer with the information following the same placement. I also think the use of only one colour, green, helps keeping the information in the forefront. I like the use of only one font too and the use of caps to make the eye go to the companies name directly after the flavour. Good hierarchy (as much as I can tell because I can't read the rest...).
Next time I'll actually get something from Nanaimo,

This was on a website my mom's friend sent to her. It's a South African website about pet health care. Might I say that South Africans are weird...

I like it. Very earthy and natural looking. The colors used, labelling and materials all seem to present a natural enjoyable beverage within.

I like the tea example, very earthy and in tune with its product.
ReplyDeleteThe "Rabid Bitch in your neigbourhood" is a hilarious pun. the design is very clean and I love the colours and the use of negative space.

No, you might not say South Africans are weird. Okay! Maybe you might. You're probably right.
