This is a gift that keeps giving! With 12 boxes, nested into one another like Russian dolls, Paul Betowski created a perfect calendar for Fedrigoni, the Italian paper mill, that shrinks as the year goes on “…like sand through the hourglass, these are the days of our lives…”

Taking printing to its luxurious extreme, just as it had with luggages, Goyard is producing a book celebrating its history, seven years in the making. All for just 5000 euros. Yummy!

Goyard, in collaboration with Devambez, announces the launch of the first book devoted to the legendary Parisian trunk maker.

Continuing the heritage of the prestigious collections from the 1920s, this extremely limited edition publication resonates with and celebrates the golden age of luxury travel, from horse-drawn carriages to the great transatlantic ocean liners. The book is presented within a made to order trunk. Each client is now invited to make a named copy of this highly collectable book into a unique piece.
One is not only able to choose the colour of the case’s canvas, but also to affix specific initials and stripes upon it. Copies are numbered from 1 to 233, validating the rarity and authenticity of both the book and the Goyard trunk which encases it.
This magnificent art book uses traditional letterpress techniques for the text, features its own watermarks and is printed upon custom made vellum paper à la forme of Arches Mills. Goyard and the Éditions d’Art Devambez have succeeded in simultaneously creating a precious object in its own right as well as a captivating tome, both of which are characterized by a true sense of splendour.

Tokujin Yoshioka has done it again with a tightly edited aesthetics and a clear visionary idea. Now the problem is we all want something is we cannot have… yet.

For this symbolic work, Tokujin set up the concept of “Wearing the scent of crystal.”

While Tokujin has been conducting several collaboration projects with Swarovski, he was commissioned to come up with a concept design for a product that symbolizes Swarovski.Rather than by rearranging visual shapes, he pondered of designing a perfume bottle with a throughly new concept, which is to affect the senses.The intent of the design is to bottle crystal within perfume, and to let the crystal fit in the scent.

Even this project had not been realized, Tokujin developed a new perspective.”

ANON was specifically created to challenge and stand out in a very tired and clichéd premium diamond jewellery market founded on the “diamonds are forever” sentiment.

Pearlfisher’s approach was to confront this sentiment and turn it on his head by focusing on the person, moment or occasion rather than on the diamond. ANON references unknown authors of love, poetry and folktales  its understated and ambiguous nature allows the brand to take a step back, putting the consumer in the spotlight. This is reflected in the new strapline: ‘every story has a diamond’.

The ANON identity is a simple triangle, echoing an ‘A’ shape, and representing the facets of a perfect diamond/ perfect balance of life. Each of the two bespoke packaging boxes comes wrapped in an ‘origami’ style outer, which then reveals a box with a triangular shaped key inset into the lid. Removing this key and inserting it into the lock springs open the box to reveal the jewellery.”

An interesting idea by Patrick Sung, saving lots in wasted container spaces. Just wondering if without the strength of a straight plane, does the packaging lose some of its strength? via doornob

Vintage packaging has that handmade crafty feel that is very in at the moment. I love how due to the lack of technology, and the nature of printing misalignment that the colours overlap into beautiful patterns! via Lovely Package, see more at the Vintage Matchbox Flickr Pool.

Puma spent some time, looked inwards, and found that the perfect solution to the shoe box problem is to not have a box at all. Designed by Yves Behar of Fuseproject, the solution is a simple piece of folded cupboard in a cloth bag. Easy to use, and easier to reuse.
