About Follow Me Packaging

Follow Me is a packaging design for Buddhist vegetarian food. The design addresses young consumers, a group not well served by the traditional packaging usually applied to such products. Only the most essential design elements are kept, so the packaging appears concise, fashionable and approachable. A simple visual language with a Zen character replaces familiar decorative styles and changes common expectations about Buddhist products. Each package measures 80 by 40 by 300 millimetres. The intent is to make vegetarian food more accessible to a younger audience.
