Aerie Shimmer eau de toilette

Aerie Shimmer eau de toilette packaging inspiration || 2lch

Can you believe this is a perfume sample?

This was such a fun little package to hold–reminded me of this one type of candy I’d get sometimes as a kid.

However, I need to point out a few things:

  • As much as I loved the package, I’m not sure how it fits with the rest of the brand. Yes, the foil is shimmery as per the name of the perfume, but it also screams “candy”–no other marketing materials for this product communicate that. It’s a bit strange.
  • The packaging makes you want to untwist that foil much like you’d do with a piece of candy. But you should never, ever treat perfume samples like that. I twisted both ends of the foil by reflex, not thinking about what I’m doing, which made the vial inside fall out and shatter all over the floor. So, uh, I have no idea if this is even a nice perfume to wear. Obviously it’s my fault for not thinking it through, but I’m a bit sad that the fun candy packaging tricked me into a very stupid product-handling experience.

    Zazz Deals needed a simple, iconic identity that would catch the eye of University of Maryland students.

    These aren’t pretty pictures, but some of the collateral that I’ve designed for an upcoming conference arrived today. Thought I’d share. It’s nice to help out my alma mater. With this one, I had fun playing with a letterform-driven logo solution that represents the unlocking of ideas. Hence the keyhole imagery and a quirky (and… [Continue Reading]

    The National Cathedral

    I love DC for many reasons, not the least of which is the amount of free, accessible inspiration everywhere. The Washington National Cathedral has really beautiful carved typography. It’s also a place with a sense of humor. Did you know there is a Darth Vader “gargoyle” on it? By the way, the beautiful building was… [Continue Reading]
