Why do some packs capture the world’s enthusiasm while other packs sit on shelves getting dusty? The Package Design Book 3 presents all the work that was applauded in the Pentwards in 2013 and 2014.

“Readers will discover, through introductory essays, product descriptions and plenty of images, what drives design industry leaders and agencies behind these creations which are so much part of our everyday lives,” publisher, Taschen, commented.

The book contains more than 400 packs from 30 countries, so the world’s packaging trends, ideas and possibilities can be seen in its pages.
