Check your cup: Starbucks new packaging debuts

March 10th, 2011  |  coffee, design  |  1 Comment

It’s Starbucks 40th anniversary this week. You may have noticed their Foursquare campaign aimed at spreading the love and giving away gift cards to a select number of folks who check in before Saturday. Their new branding also started appearing in stores this week.

I wrote about their new wordless logo a few months ago. Although I was skeptical then, I have to say I really like the look now that’s it’s being put into place. The cup design is so simple and clean. I never consciously thought about needing more white-space on my daily dose of caffeine, but it really makes a difference. Check out The Dieline for more of these mouthwatering packaging pics.

Has your location rolled out the new designs yet? What do you think?

You need more white space on your coffee cup? I’ve got a solution for you: The styrofoam cup.
