Ô Water
Originally, I discovered these pretty water bottle designs at packaging UQAM. Since there wasn't much info available there, I did some investigating to find out who was behind the design.

The bottle is supposedly quite small, to mimic the effect of a test tube based on the idea of a 'specimen of purity'.
