The many different types of foods demanded specialized packaging, from jars and plastic containers to little burlap sacks and simple tags. Each allows the consumer to aesthetically -- and occasionally tangibly -- discern and appreciate the rich colors and textures of the sweet potatoes, the almonds and more.
While one can already recognize the item at hand, Anna explored an enhanced branding strategy in her Cyclades packaging that comprises scrumptious illustrations in exquisite earthy colors with organic shapes.
