Meteorite sign the packaging of Biscotti Amaretti from Chiostro di Saronno for El Corte Inglés. A can of cookies made with almond paste by this Italian pastry company specialized in the production of sweets, panettone and liqueurs since 1847.
For Biscotti Amaretti, Meteorito designed a classic-style paakaging in line with the artisanal and traditional image of Chiostro di Saronno, which conveys the high quality of its product.
The hand-made illustration interprets, with a multitude of details and symbolism, several stories about our firmament, with personified stars and planets such as Mercury, Mars, Venus, the Moon, the Sun, the Aurora Borealis or the Rainbow. All of them protected by Jupiter and Juno, gods and kings of the universe and the heavens who appear in the stone frieze that surrounds the can at the top.
As we rotate the can, we can see the color transition from dawn to dusk. The beginning of dawn represented by Aurora, goddess of dawn who flies with winged horses across the sky to announce the arrival of the Sun riding on her golden chariot. Passing through Mars, the god of war, and Venus, the goddess of love with the Morning Star, representing the beauty of the sunset along with her cherubs. Until we reach Luna, goddess of the hunt who, accompanied by her faithful deer, brings the starry night. And it ends with Mercury, the messenger of the gods who enters the deep night.
The can is crowned by a lid that shows the constellations of the zodiac. As for the finishes, there are ink reserves to reveal golden areas of the metal and a multitude of volumes in the typography, characters, friezes and cornices.
