Description
„"Интер" (Inter) is a classic cigarette pack from the Bulgarian period, characterized by an expressive and modernist design. On a light, almost ivory background, a large logo stands out - a stylized letter "И", formed from dynamic stripes of orange, brown and gray, symbolizing the movement of smoke. Below - the name INTER, written in a bold geometric font, and below it is the inscription cigarettes with filter ("filter cigarettes").
The top and bottom of the package are edged with orange, and the film retains a decorative grid pattern. The design perfectly reflects the Eastern European aesthetic of the era – simple yet distinctive, oriented towards the export or higher-end domestic market.
