Theme 2015 Glass to share
Family gatherings, barbecues and parties with friends, there are many opportunities for making the most of a convivial moment in which glass makes its mark. Students were invited to design a bottle or jar that enhances these shared moments and prolongs the pleasure of being together. Among the different markets to explore, their design may also touch upon the world of luxury and fulfill the criteria for excellence of Verallia’s high-end brand. For the 2014 edition, Verallia has joined forces with the Syndicat des AOC Bordeaux et Bordeaux Supérieur (Association of Bordeaux and Bordeaux Supérieur AOC wines) to offer a special prize on the theme of: “Design the Bordeaux Rosé Bottle”.
