Pantone Inspired Chocolate Packaging

Abanico Chocolat is a French chocolate brand with unique packaging that (as a designer) reminds me a lot of a Pantone swatch guide. It's a pretty effective way to showcase slim ganache-filled pralines with their descriptive information in an organized way.

WC/CV Toilet Paper

"WC/CV's special roll looks just like regular toilet paper and the paper is good for writing. Each cv has 3 sheets with titles; Contact Information, Education, Employment History.

Fill in the blanks, and put that roll in the company's toilet that you want to work for! or find better places!"

Design by Burak Kaynak.

Thank you Rebekha.

Derek Bowers ‘Safe Sex’ Campaign

Charged with developing an interesting campaign for the U.K.’s National Health Service, graphic designer Derek Bowers developed a visually stimulating ad series themed around alcohol labeling. The concept being that sexually transmitted diseases are often the consequence of ill-informed decisions made while under the influence.

The resulting designs are both visually stimulating and informative, if not even a little humorous. Through using the inherent recognition individuals have for these infamous brands and combining it with educational content, Bowers' designs succeed in making this information a product worth consuming.
