Modern Ferment
Reinterpreting Japan’s traditional umeboshi through a contemporary lens, the design replaces calligraphic heritage cues with bold, abstract graphics inspired by the plum’s circular form. Distinct colour schemes and geometric marks define each flavour, transforming nostalgic craftsmanship into a modern visual language of simplicity, freshness, and global appeal.
