A Rather Novel Collection: Eau De Parfum

While browsing the Anthropology website, I came across this beautiful set of perfume bottles and their pretty little boxes. This “scent-o-logue” features 6 editions of scents inspired by different flavors of tea around the world. Housed in book-like boxes, the titles of each are based on the tea’s place of origin. Each package is beautiful on it’s own, but I love how they look lined up as a set.

Lovell's Lager

Lovells Lager was created by two successful Australian music industry professionals, with a passion for great tasting beer. Lovell’s Lager is an Australian beer brand that features some different and unique packaging. Most beer companies don’t really think about creative and clever packaging for their beer but this unique box with a black boombox graphic and hint of retro on a plain white box sure stands out of the crowd! 

Tactile Surrealism: Tang Yau Hoong

tangyauhoong.com

 Tang Yau Hoong is a Graphic Designer based in Malaysia. His work is immediately striking, as he makes use of negative space, surrealism, and visual metaphors — all framed with bright colours and impeccable layout. His images have a sense of humor, and themes that immediately resonate with the viewer, keeping them locked on the image.

 He has several series exploring different themes: Playing cards, light, negative space (to name a few). Tang Yau Hoong's work has a playful, almost tactile quality. It is a great example of a very graphic style that translates beautifully to print, and I would happily have several of these hanging on my walls!
