Holy washing powder

Religious symbolism has been in design for ages and is probably here to stay for far longer (Private View, DW 29 January).

A vivid example is Daz packaging. Using the colours of the Virgin (blue, white, red) and implementing a “holy shine” behind the name is nothing more than the Christian iconographic representation of purity. Look around the shops and you’ll probably see more similar uses.
