kakoii packaging design in the Food Design Exhibition at Stilwerk Berlin

What do beautiful furnishings and good food have in common? Outstanding design! Organic and eco-friendly food and drink products no longer feature only the “sunflower-and-green-lawn” look. Instead, they exude confidence in their streamlined, cool shapes and graphically-sophisticated packaging designs.

 Fine Food Design Exhibition shines with sophisticated products

Stilwerk Berlin celebrates this change with an exhibition that will introduce you to 50 carefully selected food and drink products in sophisticated packaging design. These range from various types of chocolate, healthy juices, organic spirits, roasted noodles, and caviar from the Alps to mixes for baked breads and sensible sweets.

kakoii is part of this Exhibition with two exhibits that demonstrate what good packaging design should look like today. We appreciate the recognition we have received for our design of Das Korn (The grain – premium liquor), and are pleased that our design for Dr. Go is also included in the exhibition.

Both products are definitely worth seeing and drinking.

You are cordially invited to the opening of the exhibition on August 7, 2013 at 7:00 p.m.

Exhibition runs from August 8 to August 31, 2013
at stilwerk Berlin, Kantstraße 17, 10623 Berlin
