Bad & Good



As a graphic designer, you tend to criticize design where ever you go.
I pulled some examples that I felt were good and bad packaging design.



1. Tide to Go!
Overall, I feel this product consists of gre

This product is convienent because it is small enough to
fit in a bag of some sort and included a tip that not only spits out a mixture of detergent and water but is fit to be used as a device to take out the stain! The packaging is not so bad, the colors are great and still includes the original logo!

2. Cool Whip
Cool Whip came out with a new package design but still kept their old feel.
I like the fact that instead of the old design where you had to scoop out the whip, you can now just spread it without using any utensils. I think the top to the can is clever and helps with their design! Cool Whip has re-designed with structure and functionality, that's for sure!

3. Sierra Mist
Sierra Mist now has a simpler packaging design but enhances the name of the product by using a larger type size for MIST!I like the nature feel of the new look. The way they designed the "MIST" to actually look like mist is also a plus!






1. Burger King
I found this Burger King logo on one of their paper bags. Can you say press check? As you can see the logo bleeds in the wrong ways and I also feel this logo should be re-design since it's looking a little out dated!

2. Horizon Organic Milk
First off, this packaging seems a bit kiddish for an organic product with the cow logo and the color scheme! I'm not fond of the typestyles, their size ranges and ...
