Coca Cola Can Design - Part Deux

In April I posted about a special edition Coke can I'd been given. Above are all 5 summer edition designs. I still like the aviator sunglasses the best, but the grill design is coming in a close second.

Coca Cola Can Design

Coke representatives were given out free cans of soda the other day. Gladly, I took one and then realized the sweet design on the can. It's a special edition, Summer 2009 can. I tried to see if there was more designs out there, but I couldn't find any. I LOVE the aviators. Love.

Apparently if you like cola soda you are Kelly Slater. Despite the same basic idea, each ad was able to have a different stylistic direction. Pepsi's landscape photo is a nice change from most soft drink ads. Sans the photoshopping in color, the image could be in any nature/surfer magazine. I especially give kudos to Coke for their ability to produce an ad without using the brand's name. It is classically Coca-Cola in every way: the color, the copy, the simplistic style. The two ads are definitely related, but I'll say they're fraternal twins, not identical.
