Lapo`s Citrus Spritz — sunshine yellow can featuring a mustachioed Italian man raising two glasses, script lettering, and a red diamond border. A 0% ABV coastal Italian aperitif, molto fresco.
From its expressive typography to the ornamental patterns rooted in Portuguese visual culture, Zélly Cevada Extra is a reminder that even everyday objects can carry decades of history and identity.
Good packaging design lasts because it reflects more than trends, it reflects a place, a time, and the people behind it.

Myaku-Myaku — a vivid blue tin featuring the EXPO 2025 mascot in a pop-art four-panel grid, each pose set against a different pastel background. Eight almond and macadamia nut cookies inside, infinite eyes watching.
Temple of Heaven Gunpowder Tea — a deep-green box adorned with gold ornamentation and trilingual scripts, containing tightly rolled Zhejiang green tea with its signature smoky character.
Osaka Banpuku Karinpoi — a cherubic illustrated child framed by a fan-shaped sunburst, wheat stalks, turtles, and koi, all rendered in red, cream, and gold on a sturdy tin. Karinto fried dough wrapped in hardened candy, a Kansai confection once offered to the deity of learning.
“It’s the Key” Tamagawa Sake — Japanese pure rice sake (Junmai Ginjo) from the Tamagawa Brewing Company in Niigata Prefecture, Japan. Its light, gently sweet, and tangy flavor profile with fruity aromas with low alcohol content is designed to be “the key” to unlocking sake appreciation.
Yinxue Carabao Mango Juice — a deep green can layered with bold Traditional Chinese characters, sprawling cursive Latin script, and golden mango illustrations, proudly sourcing from Luzon Island.
AAA Balloon — colorful retro tubes filled with gel you squeeze onto a tiny yellow pipe to blow your own balloon. A nostalgic toy remembered for its bright packaging, sharp scent, and playful childhood competitions.
Ve-Tsin Gourmet Powder — a gold tin with a deep navy front panel, yellow floral borders, and a centered tulip emblem flanked by Traditional Chinese characters. Shanghai`s classic MSG seasoning, dressed with the quiet confidence of a pantry staple that needs no introduction.
Limonati by Borjomi Tarkhun — a vivid green can adorned with a red stag, mountain scenery, and tarragon sprigs, carrying a Georgian authentic recipe born in 1889. Herbal, fizzy, and built on over a century of tradition.
Apple Sidra — a sunshine yellow can featuring a bold red apple sliced clean by a ribbon of text in both Latin and Traditional Chinese scripts. Taiwan`s beloved carbonated apple drink since 1965, crisp, clean, and proudly "without chemical colors."
Eigo de Gêmu (Tukapon Game) — a bold, graphic box in hot pink and neon green, stacked with oversized katakana and a tagline that wraps around the edges: "A game where you explain the Japanese word written on the card using only English, without using any Japanese." Typography as rulebook.
