Oval vs. Rectangle – When to Use Each
Rectangles are ideal when space efficiency, edge alignment, or data scanning is a priority—especially for addresses, item codes, or typed labels.
Ovals, on the other hand, provide a design-friendly shape for packaging, presentation, or display. They contour smoothly onto jars, bottles, or irregular containers while adding visual softness.
