This package design was inspired by traditional Navajo patterns and textures.

“A blanket canteen is a common method of keeping water cold through evaporation. Despite most blanket canteens using a pattern reminiscent of Native American textiles, I had yet to see a package design taking advantage of this interesting imagery. Thus, I created the “Desert Spirit,” using traditional Navajo patterns and textures on recyclable materials so that an eco-savvy consumer would be attracted to both the concept and the design.”
