Here’s a sneak peek into the artistic cover of Book #7 featuring ‘Only For Your Eyes (Cold Brew Coffee)’ by Supperstudio Design, and Olive Oil Dispenser by Grupo Idea.

Front cover: Only For Your Eyes (Cold Brew Coffee) by Supperstudio Design

With over 1.3 billion blind people worldwide, Supperstudio’s packaging for the cold brew coffee drink ‘Only for Your Eyes’ is aimed at raising awareness of this reality. Developed exclusively in braille, all copy is translated and printed as raised dots. Finished with screen-printed ink and varnish, the braille adorns a label made from an ecological, naturally soft, felt-marked paper.

Back cover: Olive Oil Dispenser by Grupo Idea

A product designed for sustainability and promoting beauty in design, this gourmet olive oil dispenser is a compact and innovative design that works perfectly with other Soso products. Crafted from ceramic, the product and the packaging design are deep-rooted in Andalusia and the Spanish Levant. With sustainability and a contemporary visual appeal at the core, the locking system incorporates a double anti-drip and oil return mechanism. With a witty twist, the Oil Dispenser can be clubbed with egg-shaped Soso salt dispensers, asking the ultimate question, "which came first, the egg or the chicken?"
