These buckets were designed to function as bar displays and were made in a collaboration between the creative agency 'Butterfly Cannon' and [Absolut](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/absolut) [Vodka](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparkling-cranberry-vodka-beverage).

Looking to create design components that function as additional features of the Absolut brand, Butterfly Cannon held interactive workshops and interviews with the vodka brand in order to create these products. The first is an unusual lighting setup that displays the brand's vodka bottles while small led lights cover the entire cylindrical shape. The second is an [ice bucket](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocktail-ice-sets) in a chrome container that also lights up in its interior, in its base and its 'Absolut' sign.

These bar displays match perfectly with Absolut Vodka's brand aesthetic and further enhances its appeal in public settings.
