Creative bar code designs

So I've come across this very innovative design team based company in Tokyo, Japan for barcodes. They are taking the basic barcode design, that you see in almost every single packaging and turning it into something more fun, eye-catching and cool. Their designs fall into many categories, such as fashion, food, sports etc. Why has bar codes been restricted so much? and it got me thinking, how come no one thought about this before. The company was awarded with an 'Good design award' in the communication design category in 2005. They have also teamed up with a leading innovating company called PACARC in the states in order to make their barcodes grow furthermore. The images show a few barcode designs. It is worth taking a look into their creative website as well http://www.barcoderevolution.com/gallery/.
