Lay's 2021 Mood Match

Food Packaging for PepsiCo Design and Innovation

When designing their year end limited edition packaging for an exclusive social media giveaway, Lay's decided to create four mood ring inspired designs, linked to positive memories and emotions in hopes of invigorating a sense of energy or inducing a sense of comfort among Lay's fans. With that in mind, Lay's 2021 Mood Match focused on flavors that would inspire gratitude (Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup), optimism (Cappuccino), feistiness (Chili) or cheerfulness (Salted Caramel).
