The bottle pictured below was masterminded by graphic designer and curator Jiang Hua. The horizontal red patterns are actually stylized Chinese characters for the word “Coca-Cola.” Its soundtrack song, “Be It All,” was written by singer-songwriter Jes, who says she was inspired by the maze-like quality of the bottle’s design.

Coca Cola celebrated their 100th anniversary by releasing this centenary bottle. The bottle was made exclusively for Selfridges, a popular London department store. The centenary Coke bottle was made of glass with a bright shade of yellow, which is Selfridge’s signature color. Coca-Cola was written in red, with a red cap.

Introduced in 2005, Coca-Cola launched a line of 5 aluminum contoured bottles called the “Magnificent 5″ or M5. Five different studios from five continents were each commissioned to design a bottle. According to Coca-Cola, this visual rebranding aimed at discerningly creative consumers, to be found only at “the world’s most exclusive clubs and lounges.”

The infamous bottle is known for its contour design and was actually created in 1915, by glass bottle designer Earl R. Dean of the Root Glass Company. The Coca-Cola Company decided to have a competition on who could create the best bottle design. They wanted a design that could be easily recognizable, even in the dark or if broken.
