Hans Brindfors, one of Sweden’s best-known art directors and designers, designed these classic “laboratory” vodka bottle for KARLSSON’S VODKA.

“As a statement, the first distillation of KARLSSON’S VODKA was poured into a classic laboratory bottle to underscore that it was a trial: could vodka really be made from virgin new potatoes and could the properties of the golden potatoes be transferred to the character of vodka? The idea of using a laboratory bottle came from Hans Brindfors, the renowned Swedish design guru, who decided to emboss the Karlsson’s logo and the classic laboratory measurement on the bottle but stick to the original silhouette.”
