Some very high-level people applied who would not have been interested in the position if more traditional methods had been implemented, explained Professor Tapio Vapaasalo.

The works were judged by a jury led by professor Tapio Vapaasalo from the Department of Graphic Design, Helsinki University of Art and Design.

"This sets an attractive challenge for other schools, most of which do not necessarily give such a high priority to packaging design in their curricula," Tapio Vapaasalo concludes.
