Book Description

May 2004
Showcases international food packaging graphic design, from designer lines such as Phillipe Starck's bottle water, to the pop kitsch of Japanese sweet wrappers, and from super-branded icons to in-house lines and own brands.

It also takes three international design groups working in the field as case studies for in-depth analysis, following the designers through the process, from brief to launch.

2.0 out of 5 stars Sophmoric Presentation, The elite in package design., July 12, 2005
This review is from: Eat Me: Delicious, Desirable, Successful Food Packaging Design (Hardcover)
If you can get past the babe with the big red lips and her toungue, its not a bad book. The cover, presentation and chapter pages do little justice to the great design examples contained therein.

How dare I, but I took a razor blade an 5 minutes and improved the book so I can now leave it out for my clients.

I would like to have seen success/failure results. Did the package/product sell?
