Takashi Murakami-Inspired Instant Ramen Noodle Packaging
Student Erick Montes created this instant ramen noodle soup packaging that's based on the work of Japanese "superflat" artist Takashi Murakami. "I originally set out to do only one flavor (shiitake mushroom) to communicate the references to hallucinogenics in Murakami’s work," Montes says, "and also as a metaphor for the bombing of Hiroshima, which Murakami sees as the birth of today’s westernized Japan."
I love how the bowl also forms a mouth—and that it's a cut-out that reveals the product. Snappy design. [via Superpunch]
