Evian, source of luxury

"Holy water"

Californians are promoting tap water in restaurants ! On the contrary, Evian enhances its pureness through limpid and glamorous design in New-York and Paris.

On one hand, the brand has launched last summer its first premium bottle « Evian Palace » for clubs and luxury hostels. And the polished plastic and its metallic spout make real illusion. An up-market illusion to conquest the biggest world market
of still water in bottle.

On the other hand, with the artistry of Jean-Paul Gaultier, Evian introduces
a « Haute Couture » version of the bottle made by Baccarat house which is the first
of 5 unique pieces. Luxury, is definitely a valuable trend.

Do you want a piece of chart ?

« Save, Share & Eat »

What is in common between charts, a tableware collection and a pie ? An illustrated shape –original and simple- that has been converted into useful objects for aperitif by French designers 5.5 and a very graphic cake created by New-Yorkers Mary & Matt !

Both of them have the same aim : to satisfy the needs related to new food behaviors such as « Le Fooding or finger food » phenomenon and our appetites for beauty-tasty food.

It is important to underline the 5.5 as they go beyond aesthetic design with their « Save a product » initiative. An initiative which illustrates the designers will to avoid industrial and commercial wasting because of a non-successfull conclusion ordered by their glassworker client. They bought up the stock in order to give it a second chance.
