Bicycles have come a long way in recent years. Many things have changed, but what remains the star constant is the shape of the frame, which has been practically unchanged since the very beginning.

Some couples are made for each other. A glass of wine and a good book is a combination we've heard about many times. A good book often goes well with a drop of wine, which inspired Reverse Innovation to combine wine and literature.

Each matches the characteristics of the wine.

Coca-Cola is getting a new, unified look. The packaging of famous bottles, bottles and cans will receive a makeover. It is the last phase in the unification strategy of the brand, which will give their different drinks a unified look, but of course we will still be able to easily distinguish them from each other. Since 1982, when Coca-Cola sent its derivatives to the shelves in addition to classic Coca-Cola (at first Diet Coke, followed by Coke Zero and Coke Life), all drinks had their own design, but from now on they will all speak the same design language. The connecting element will be the red disc.
