Package Design: Ah&Oh Studio [Poland]

I love this Babees honey packaging, especially the hand-drawn logo.

Vintage Aussie Design: Jerome Gould for Farmer’s Union

This brilliant Farmer’s Union milk and dairy packaging from the 1980s should be revived in my humble opinion.

Via the wonderful Re:Collection, an online archive of Australian graphic design from 1960 - 1980.

Trend: Medicinal

Recently I’ve been observing a graphic trend of packaging and design that evoke a sense of old medical labels and classification. Personally I am quite a fan.

Old Malt Cask liquor, via Lovely Package. Not a fan of some of the typefaces on here though, hand lettering might have been better

This one is my favourite, Karlsson’s Vodka, also via Lovely Package.

Incidentally I also love the logo. This is loto packaging, designed by Arutza Onzaga, P576

I really enjoy the idea of applying these aesthetics and principles to other objects, and I think that Jessica Hische’s book cover design below seems to convey a sense of the old, the medical and the organisational.. and it works really well.
