Type & Branding
I really like the idea of having an oriental theme for the rice but with an English twist on it.
Here are a few typefaces that have caught my eye.
They are all quite different, however I feel it is important to have a wide range at this stage.
My favourite font and one that I think I may use for my branding at the moment is:
Possible names:
Perfect Measure
Rice & Easy
Just The Rice Amount
Just Rice
Tip-Tip
Pour
Just Pour
No Waste
Waste Not Want Not
I want the name to be quite quirky and interesting there fore at the moment my favourite is:
Just Rice
The name plays on words with 'just right' and 'just rice'.
Below are the brand name in the chosen typeface in Title case, Caps, and lowercase.
I think the most readable font is the one in the lowercase, however I am not convinced that this is how the font will stay exactly I think a bit of tweaking needs to be done.

Re-useable Brain Wave
Just been sat here brainstorming and thinking about packaging in shops for food and how food packaging could be re-used. On a very wide scale once you have used/eaten the food the packaging will go in the bin.
What could I design that is both re-useable and helpful to the consumer?
I always have the problem when I am cooking rice to know how much to use, there is no real way to measure rice other than by eye. I have tried in the past pouring it into a bowl to try estimate how much I will need, but I always end up with a mountain at the end when it has cooked and expanded.
So how can you measure rice?
A mechanism like this could work well. This sugar dispenser gives you one teaspoon each time you tip it up and down.
If I could find a more sustainable material to use then the dispenser could be part of the actual packaging for the rice.
