Peddy Mergui is a top branding expert, artist, and designer. He is known for his prowess at making “rule-breaking” designs and concepts. His recent project, Wheat is Wheat is Wheat, pairs basic commodities like eggs, rice, and milk with luxury packaging. This work illuminates the struggle Mergui faces as a designer between promoting monetary interests while remaining true to his own moral compass. The objects that Mergui made for the project highlight the arbitrary connection that products sometimes have to their packaging. Wheat is Wheat is Wheat is humorous, provocative, and gives you a lot to think about on your next shopping trip. How much would you pay for Tiffany yogurt? Would it taste better?
