Modular bottle packaging
Got the modular bottle last month. I wanted the white/black version but could get only the space blue version.

I immediately liked the additional sticker on top of the brown box. It added a little bit of happiness. They could have just kept the brown box but the sticker made me confident that it wasn't opened before; was sealed, of course.
The bottle looks great. Frosted, completely cylindrical, with a compact cap. Love the font, print on the bottle, and futuristic graphic elements.

Here's a better view of the box.

Although I had read about the product on their website, I still felt like reading about it on the back of the package; skimmed through the features, and read the story in About. Loved how much thought went behind making this water bottle.
The bottle comes with quite a few cap types and accessories, so scanned the QR code for instructions even before opening the box.

Simple little detail where they added visuals of the different cap types — flat cap, simple twist screw cap, sporty flip open cap, and an industrial (+) cap. I love the industrial cap since it's the easiest to grip and use. I would have preferred the flip open cap but it's quite tight and is difficult to open (should have had a press button).

Comes with a ton of accessories. Four kinds of caps, different coloured industrial cap fitting, a white top exterior case in white, infusion container for tea or fruits, metal straw, two rubber rings, and a secret compartment at the base of the bottle.

This is one of the best designed bottles I've used. I wish some of the other cap types were easier to use. Love how the water looks frosted (with depth) given the finish. And, yes, it's super easy to carry around and grip.
Here's another packaging copy I liked.

Good watch, read & listen
I met Apoorv (Co-founder of Lazy Co. & later acquired by Ultrahuman) via a mutual friend earlier this year to learn about hardware design and how could we design the Native org at Urban Company. When he announced The hardware story podcast, I was genuinely excited to get insights from him as well as other hardware folks in the ecosystem. I finally got to listen the first episode here. Highly recommend it for folks in hardware design.
I'm also currently reading Invention: A Life of Learning through Failure by James Dyson (will share book notes when done), practicing more sketching with the help of How to draw by Scott Robertson, and learning about Industrial design from The industrial design reference + specification book — which seems perfect for my day-to-day work references.
