Verte, the Two Lipped Non-Dripping Bottle
behance.net Verte by Barcelona-based designer Noro is a bottle that features two lips to catch spills and return them to inside the bottle. It's certainly classier looking and more functional than the purple elephant spout (although I do have a soft spot in my heart for the elephant). The more non-drip bottle designs we have the better, so I don't have to keep wiping the sides of my unintentionally oil-slicked bottles.

Photograph from graphicology on Flickr Designer J. Jason Smith took photos of Arabic and English versions of Western packages, mostly food-related, during his trip to Dubai.

Advertising Age Kellogg's is testing a shorter, fatter cereal box. But unlike some recent package changes that have short-changed consumers, this one doesn't futz with the amount of product inside.

Since it involves an 8% decrease in materials, the new box design is also stands to burnish Kellogg's green halo. Detroit will be the test market.
