Student Gabriela Nisizaki has designed the perfect packaging for Interlaken chocolate.

Her design is [origami-inspired](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nestl-quality-street), allowing there to be [no need for glue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfpacking-cheese) to hold the paper together. In regards to the rest of the package, Gabriela Nisizaki said, "The shape and inner texture is for the mountains in Interlaken a municipality in Switzerland."

The Uruguayan student's packaging is the perfect example of simplicity. By creating a package that is minimal in design, Nisizaki has managed to place herself on branding radar.

The [white chocolate wrapper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gnaw-chocolate-bar) is icy blue and accented by navy, whereas the dark chocolate is a mustard yellow, accented by off white. Both packages display Gabriela Nisizaki's idea of the mountainous peaks and their designs were executed flawlessly.
