Model Young Package 2022 Winner

Even the moment of taking the food from a restaurant can represent a great experience. Young designer Lea Romanowská from the Czech Republic embodied the experience into the luxury take-away box for the Chinese dumplings called jiaozi. Up to 8 dumplings can fit inside, surrounding the space for a sauce. Depending on the type of dumplings, it is possible to insert different paper into the package, thus personalizing the package. On the outside, the box looks very elegant, minimalistic and thanks to the cut-out which replaces the print, it offers an opportunity for unique branding and individualization. In addition, according to the expert jury, it is structurally perfectly developed.

The aim of the package from Kareřina Hovorková from the Czech Republic is to get people closer to nature, to motivate them to think about the life conditions of chickens and to buy eggs from free breeding or beddings. At first glance, thanks to the material and design, it is clear that the content of the box is not any industrial product but it is the work of a living creature and a gift of nature. The egg packaging caught the jury's attention with its distinctive monochromatic graphic design. Well made linocut technique reminds the user of the farmer's environment and creates the urge to open the box (by opening the wings of the chicken) to discover what is inside - farm eggs.

This package was also awarded the Model Group Innovation Centre Award.

Agnieszka Jaskierska from Poland thought of the elderly when designing the package. She realized that many of them have a problem opening packages with dry food, because it often spills out. The movable parts of the package enable measuring the portion size and the hole for pouring the content can be opened and closed repeatedly. A great advantage of this rice package is also the combination of opaque and transparent parts which enables one to see the amount of the product inside. A plus is the sustainable and 100% recyclable package made from a single material.

Veronika Fejtová from the Czech Republic decided to solve the problem of measuring the portion size of spaghetti. She designed a package that uses a tube with a hole that determines the portion size instead of an impractical plastic package. A simple and attractive solution represents functional design with a great idea. The tube shape allows for easy storage and matches its minimalist graphic design.
