M-Pod Series II for Patron Power - AIDA Shortlisted

The M-Pod marine pedestal provides essential services to berthed watercraft, all within a sophisticated unit specifically targeted at the high-end international marina market. Featuring waterproof power outlets & fresh-water connections combined into a central hub, the unit also provides general ambient illumination to aid in berthing after dark. The M-Pod’s strong architectural aesthetic is reflective of both the premium marina environment, and the sleek vessels berthing along side.

Gold and Silver at the Packaging Design Awards

The team at Outerspace Design is celebrating with our delighted partners Cryovac and Simplot being awarded the Packaging Council of Australia (PCA) 2009 Gold Award for the Leggo’s tubs. Pasta sauce is now available fresh in your local grocer’s refrigerated section next to the fresh pasta. Fresh pasta sauce now looks as good as it tastes!

PCA: “The strength of this handsome little tub lies in its wholesome credibility… Aesthetically superior to its current competition, this honest, open, unadulterated presentation speaks volumes for the brand itself”

Our partner Cryovac backed it up with a Silver Award for the range of deli salad tubs we designed for their client Woolworths.
