Pomade Perfume Packaging - Slacks Cologne Branding Channels a Vintage Primping Product (TrendHunter.com)

SuperstarSlacks Cologne Branding Channels a Vintage Primping Product

New and fresh ideas can certainly come from iconic and even overly-used imagery, and Slacks Cologne branding is a slick example of this. There was a time when a tiny round tin of pomade was one of the most prized items in a man’s pocket, which makes it the perfect symbol to promote the importance of this perfumed product.

Inside the hair wax can lies a transparent rectangular bottle filled with a unisex fragrance. The visual references did not end with the image on the printed metal, for the same vintage style illustrations are found on the flask as well. There is a classic appeal to the 1920s Slacks Cologne branding, which as an extension serves to sell the expertise of Charles S. Anderson Design Co. and the release of its CSA Archive illustration book.

Vintage Console Computer Mods - SEGA Saturn Laptop Revives an Old Gaming Classic (TrendHunter.com)

RockstarSEGA Saturn Laptop Revives an Old Gaming Classic

One of the latest console mods comes from c_mon who designed the SEGA Saturn Laptop, which should bring back plenty of nostalgia for those who have been gaming since their hands could hold a controller.

The now defunct SEGA Saturn has now been brought back to life in the form of a laptop. So what are some of the changes done to the retro console? Designer cs_mon has added a small 5” Sony PSOne as a flip-up screen, which is definitely something new. There’s also a large wooden case that encompasses the SEGA Saturn Laptop that features Sonic the Hedgehog engraved on either side. The disc is now visibly spinning and there’s even blue fluorescent light on the side. An additional cooling fan has been added inside to prevent the system from overheating.
