packaging - KNOLL




like most days, i took a few minutes this morning to look for inspiring designs online...and, like most days, there were plenty of inspirations to be discovered. while i can't share all of the exciting designs out on www, knoll packaging for a table lamp (found on advertising educational foundation) was simply irresistible - so, here it is... enjoy... and feel free to leave a comment!

cheers!
