# Triangular Egg Packaging This Conceptual Egg Carton Takes on an Entirely Unique Shape By Mishal Omar | Published 2018-03-16 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eggscetra References: [packagingoftheworld](https://www.packagingoftheworld.com/2018/03/eggscetra.htmlhttps://www.packagingoftheworld.com/2018/03/eggscetra.html) As part of a student project, Marmik Patel has created egg packaging that is both minimalist and artisanal in its appearance. Rather than opting to do a variation of the standard rectangular egg carton, Patel instead chose to take on an entirely different form altogether — the [trianglular prism](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triangle-hanger). His alternative egg packaging is made from a [simple brown cardboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/placon-crystal-seal-delectables), and comes in the form of an elongated prism shape that can contain up to four eggs. The containers feature minimalist branding that gives them an authentic, artisanal appearance. This unusual egg carton shape would be more functional for those who sell at farmers markets and from home, as opposed to large grocery distributors.
