What looks tasteful? Is there an aesthetic of taste?

These questions are often on the table when designing identities and packaging for food brands. Designing something tasty is not only about flavour; it’s also a portal to conversations about food’s connections to culture, heritage and history, as well as health, environmental impact, agriculture, ethics and more. Join Erika as she shares insights from some of the brands that OB has created over the last 20 years, and how she and her team approach these topics in their work.
