There are two clever layers of packaging found in Eggrow by Kevin Craft, with one made primarily of paper and the other of [ceramic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourd-project). Indeed, the smooth white egg may be the focal point, but it contains a [mixture of soil and seeds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/treesoil) that is the golden yolk of this object.

The Savannah College of Art and Design student began with just the raw natural materials, sculpting them a perfect replica of a chicken's egg for protection. An octagonal carton was constructed around it to then shelter the delicate capsule.

Within the cardboard box, a supportive base has been constructed. With a small hole in the center it holds the egg securely. This piece has been printed with a twiggy texture, where the interior or the packaging for Eggrow by Kevin Craft is a lush leafy design.
