With this project, Josh White worked to inspire a more relevant artistic itch that pertains to enhancing the palette of a space. With influence from the purist geometric patterns of Danish design, White decorated each of the solvent and wall color canisters with marvelous repeated motifs of circles, triangles and squares in a grid. This is consistent within one half of the pieces of Aleksander Nielsen Paint packaging. On the other half, the designer featured a solid block create an intriguing contrast.
