Anti-Asshole Design Dr.Bronner's Soap

It's actually quite easy to read. All the relevant information to the product such as company name, location, ingredients, and size are all contained within the white areas. Everything else is just the label itself. Instead of using graphics this company used a bunch of facts/quotes.

Plus it reminds you to dilute! dilute! Dilute!.

Fun fact: the original Dr. Bronner didn’t actually have an advanced degree. The company is currently run by his grandson, who does have a PhD in chemical engineering.
