Most people know that a "Grapple" is a fruit hybrid of an apple and a grape, but if you had to pick one out, it might be difficult to do without smelling or tasting it—this apple box packaging design by Kat Downing makes identifying a Grapple easy.
The box was designed for Grapple, a company that is clearly up for experimentation. The finished design of the box uses simple geometry to fold neatly into a protective shape for a single apple. From the outside, there's text to indicate that there's a Grapple inside, but the prints play off the look of an apple. Once the packaging is opened, the insides of the box reveal a purple grape print, showing off the true nature of Grapple.
