About Tongue-Bongue Candy Package
The wish was to create a package for some kind of food. When developing packaging, it is most important to be unpredictable. Since there are many stereotypical solutions on the market, something else should be sought, one should move away from the templates. And attention was paid on eating process itself such as taking and putting food in the mouth. This was a background to idea. People use the tongue to suck all sorts of sweets. Tongue-shaped lollipops create a surreal metaphor "tongue on (human) tongue".
