Design agency Trill is behind the packaging design for Gradient, a brand that’s helping us all feel a little better after a night of drinking. Because each can has less alcohol than the next, Trill thoughtfully tapped into the brand’s name to create a gradient design within the packaging itself. In order of percentage of ABV, each can gets a little lighter, visually thoughtfully showcasing the potency. Plus, the yellow and pink color combination is entirely playful, proving that just because your drinks are getting lighter doesn’t mean that the fun has to stop.
Gradient’s Cans Fade So You Don’t Hands up if youâve ever thought âgee, I wish I didnât have that last drink last night.â Us too. Thankfully, a solution to this age-old problem landed on Canadian shelves in fall of 2021. Gradient Vodka Soda is the worldâs first âgradually reducing vodka sodaâ packaging together multiple ABVs in one pack: 8%, 7%, 6%, 4%, 3%, 2%. So, how does this help you keep your night (and next morning) bright?
Well, first, a little science. You see, the human body can process up to one 4% drink per hour. Anything above that floats around in your system where it brings about the good (and if you have too much, the bad) vibes. Therefore, the key to a bright night is to fill your good vibes tank, without OVER filling it. Thatâs where Gradient comes in. With their âstart strong, last longâ approach, itâs easy to drink less and less and less through the night â while keeping your buzz consistent.
