Butterfly Tea by Yena Lee

This is the day and age of packaging! Quality products do sell well, but to give them that creative edge, they need to be packaged well. For example a great tasting tea will always be bought, but if it’s sold as cleverly packaged as this butterfly tea bag, then you give it that creative edge to be bought by the curious minds and impulse shoppers.

Microgarden Kit

“We teamed up with the Berlin-based indoor farming start up INFARM to develop a never-before-seen indoor growing kit – so anyone can grow their own microgreens at home. The Microgarden kit contains a reusable and renewable sheet of plastic which folds into a self-contained greenhouse. The Microgarden uses transparent seaweed based agar-agar gel as a growing medium, and it has many benefits. It allows the Microgarden to remain self-contained – which means you will never have to water the microgreens. Their roots absorb moisture from the gel. The clear gel also allows the home-farmer to see and experience the whole growing process, from when the seeds sprout to the roots growth. The greenhouses’ walls cut the agar-agar gel in to six slices of still living greens. So you can choose to have only one slice or to put the whole greenhouse directly on the table to serve from.” – Tomorrowmachine

The ‘note’ earphone packaging is a really creative concept. Its clean, to the point and we love the way this is cleverly packaged to visually communicate the product use. However, we can clearly see problems with the packaging, which is to be expected as this packaging is student concept work and would need refining before hitting the shelf. The most obvious problem being potential product and packaging damage as well as theft. But as a concept it has Legs. via

“I thought I was being a miser, but in all honesty I cut open the end of my toothpaste tube to get to the last wee bit of paste. Call it conservation or being stingy but that’s what I do. So I totally identify with the Thrift Toothpaste package design and hope someone like Colagte or Crest adopt it! It will save me the trouble of hunting for scissors… I’ll just tear open the rear end!” – In Case Of Emergency Cut Toothpaste by GUO Lili via Yanko Design
