Today we’ll finish off the week with a roundup of awesome packaging concepts from Behance and Packaging of the World.

Clever
We’ve separated the package designs into three categories: clever, quirky and beautiful. You can use each for a different kind of inspiration. This section contains product packaging and concepts that arose out of a good or unique idea that seems to work really well.
These packaging concepts may use custom sized boxes to enhance their design, and they may not even look like boxes!
Some, like Brooklyn Fare’s cups merely contain a witty headline. Others, such as VIM Popcorn are particularly innovative and present an old product in a new way.

The ideas here are different from the last section in that they’re not particularly good or bad so much as they are delightfully strange. From musical beer bottles to a perfume contain that looks like it came from space, these products are sure to get you thinking outside the box!
