Porsena

  • Mark Osmond
Boutique concept packaging for an ancient Italian pasta recipe with a high quality modern finish. In creating the background story, inspiration was taken from the Etruscan civilisation in Italy, who were said to be the first to make pasta and the tomb of one of their Kings, Lars Porsena. His tomb was marked above ground by five obelisks in a square formation, hence the shape of the packaging. The packaging is designed for convenience, to include one portion of pasta and to open from the bottom whilst being held over a cooking pan.
