1009, MALIN+GOETZ Scented Candles and Packaging

Seven scented candles are displayed on a shelf. Printed cardboard packages for each candle are stacked above in columns. The packages are printed in rich colors that reinforce the scent of each candle. Cannabis is the color of marijuana resin. Mojito is Caribbean-sea blue. Neroli (orange blossom) is a rich, tropical red. The packaging system was designed by 2x4 for MALIN+GOETZ.
