The clean lines, half-moon die cut, and crisp product
presentation speak well of this brand’s unique experience—
fresh-grown herbs without the dirt! The side- and back-
panel architecture is just as effective. Bold color blocks,
organized type, and descriptive photos tell the brand story
without words. A visualist’s delight!

I can’t help but think, “if only the Chia pet had such a lovely
package.” The clean white surface is striking and allows the
herbs to take center stage.

It’s a bold move to go black and white in a category
dominated by splashes of intense color. It gives it a more
premium feel, a little dirty perhaps, but this modern
photographic route is brought into freshness by the swath
of vibrant color at the bottom that differentiates and
livens up this rather sophisticated range. Having all the
ingredients on the front is also a brave move, but it builds
on the brand idea confi dently, and the almost editorial feel
links this range together.

I’m trying to fi gure out what exactly about this design
articulates Attitude, but it defi nitely does. (I visualize
a design studio with Patti LaBelle’s
New Attitude
reverberating—hey, maybe a great idea for a commercial!)
From head to toe, the black bottle caps, the posture of each
structure, the typographic story and hierarchy–uppercase,
bold, fl ush-left–the environmental signs, the black-and-
white duotone graphics and then the splash of color–
defi nitely a bold assertiveness that is a force to compete
with. A for Attitude.
