Canning obsession. INVASATI. Italy. 2025

A tall, tapering tower stacks the full Earnest Pursuit range on a pale grey backdrop: three coffee tins in blush, forest green and yellow balance on top of a staggered column of white shipping boxes, each carton alternating the letter-spaced forest-green EARNEST PURSUIT wordmark with the fine single-line New York skyline vignette of a bird, cup, cloud and Chrysler spire. A second, shorter stack of mailers sits to the right. The tins are lithographed metal; the boxes are matte uncoated corrugate printed in a single green ink, lit softly so the whites stay clean and the greens saturated. The playful, precarious arrangement shows the whole system at once — packaging design, illustration and art direction for a New York specialty-coffee brand by AOFP Studio.

Exhausting. Earnest Pursuit. NYC. 2026

Condensed liquid candy. 2025

The CLAY Champagne carton photographed at a three-quarter turn with its candle still perched on top, so cream front and shadowed deep-green side panel both read in one frame. The glossy pitcher-shaped candle sits centred above the printed silhouette, its ombré lacquer fading from full green at the spout to a chalky pale base marked with the lowercase "clay." deboss; the side panel's blind-embossed scent-pyramid copy sits just out of full legibility in the raking light, more texture than text at this angle. It's a styling choice rather than a specification shot — showing how object and pack are meant to be seen together on a shelf. Packaging design for a New York candle brand, where every angle, not just the flat-on hero, has to hold up as a still life.

Scents & ceramics. Clay. NYC. 2026

Dietitian-design, chef-prepared. FED. 2026

Twelve Earnest Pursuit tins stacked four across and three high lay out every face of the wraparound label in sequence: front, narrow side, data panel and QR back, repeated in yellow, peach and green rows. Each row keeps its two-color logic, blue on yellow and peach, cream on green, so the range separates by ground color while typography and line illustration hold constant. The data panels trace origin with dashed routes from a world map to an elevation diagram. As CPG design from a packaging design studio it is unusually tidy, and a rare case of a dieline being more photogenic than the product inside it.A wall of five columns, three tins high, peach over yellow over green, each column turned to a different face: origin, rear, front, side, origin, so the front label sits dead center like it won the draw and the origin panels bookend the lot. A thin shadow trails left across the sweep. It is branding as architecture and packaging design as brick, a symmetrical composition built from three colors and four faces. Art of Packaging's design treats a label as a building block.
