Model Young Package is back with the theme of FOOD

The Model Young Package design competition is back to amaze food lovers.

The 26th edition of the Model Young Package (MYP) packaging design competition, hosted by Model Group, starts now. The theme that packaging designers will focus on will be food packaging of the 21st century. Designers are challenged to create packaging that is sustainable, imaginative, and contributes to the quality of life.

FOOD IS...

This year's theme can really appeal to everyone. FOOD IS... ritual, art, inspiration, enjoyment, relaxation, health, joy, passion, love, addiction. Food is simply a part of our everyday lives and the appropriate packaging can enhance the experience of food even more. Just like food itself, packaging must meet the highest standards of quality. Can you design such packaging?

Participation Conditions

The international competition is divided into two categories. The «High-School» category is open for registration to students from secondary and higher vocational schools. The second category, «Unlimited», is for college students and designers with no age limit.

The deadline for submission is May 11th, 2022 and designers can register below.
