I approached the assignment by looking for ways to honor the 120+ year old Manischewitz company’s design history, while bringing it into a contemporary context. My goal was to bring a sense of humor and a brightness, and play up the kitsch factor of the well-known company.
Like the nutrition information, the adherence to Kosher standards is a significant, mandatory component of Manischewitz product packaging. I did a minor update of Kosher for Passover symbol and gave it a prominent location on the lid of the canister.
