Japanese Product Design

I find Japanese to be one of the most creative people in the world. They dress in funky outfits, build giant Gundam figures on the streets and have some pretty weird products like Bilk (milk + beer). Also considered crazy by most of the world, they certainly prove to be a pool of creativity. Guess to be creative you have to be a little nuts.

Here are some really wonderful product designs.

This is actually a notepad.

Multiple emoticon packaging of nuts.

Cute matchstick boxes.

What better way to show it's fruit juice than to actually make the box resemble the fruit.

This just shows that there is no actual end to the design of a certain product type. A simple box can be transformed into so many kinds of art. Even matchsticks that people just use and throw away can be pleasing to the eyes. This has certainly raised the bar in product aesthetics to the point that one would even consider whether to throw the packaging away or keep it.
