Google Envelopes, Beta Of Course

Designers Rahul Mahtani & Yofred Moik from the Industrial Design program at Syracuse University came up with this concept called Google Envelopes. Wouldn’t it be great to be able to map the course of mail and how it can tell a story? They came up with Google Envelopes, which can be sent through G-Mail itself. It’s only a concept, but totally viable and something people can immediately understand.

similar idea to the one the posted about the roma water bottle having maps of water fountains printed on them. this dual usage thing is interesting to me, although the actual paper and sending might be un sustainable, i think im finding common themes in stuff i find, liking the tactile stuff, just makes things seems more personal. could be an another area to look to.
