Achromatic Bakery Packaging

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Meliartos' Baked Goods Stand Out Against Black and White Containers

— June 12, 2014 — Lifestyle
Meliartos' black and white bakery packaging is loaded with patterns and symbolism, including a hexagonal logo for the bakery in Athens that brings to mind honey, with characters arranged to suggest the Greek word for "art." With a combination like this, this alone conveys that Meliartos' baked goods are delicious in both look and taste.

The identity and packaging for the bakery was designed by Kanella, taking inspiration from decorative tiles found in Neoclassical homes. As well as being a timeless and classic scheme, with an absolute lack in color from the product packaging, this makes the fresh colors of the tasty salads, juices, sandwiches and other baked goods seem even more vibrant and enticing.
Trend Themes
1. Minimalist Packaging - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in designing visually striking packaging designs that make minimal use of colors.
2. Symbolism in Branding - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in incorporating meaningful symbolism in branding efforts that evoke positive emotions or associations.
3. Neoclassical Design Influences - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in using neoclassical design influences in product or branding design to create a timeless and elegant aesthetic.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in using minimalist packaging, incorporating symbolism, and neoclassical design influences in food and beverage product packaging and branding design.
2. Luxury Goods - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in using monochromatic color schemes and neoclassical design influences in luxury goods packaging and branding design.
3. Artisanal Products - Opportunity for disruptive innovation in using minimalist packaging and incorporating symbolism in artisanal product packaging and branding design to evoke authenticity and craftsmanship.
