Moving Kit | Problem: Designing a unique survival kit

 
Relocate
Moving Kit for making a new home. 
Problem:
Design a homemade packaging system, or retool found materials for a invented survival kit. There had to be least 3 components to the survival kit.  
 
Solution:
I used two clear plastic paint cans as the centerpiece of my survival kit. Inside the kit I designed four instruction cards, describing the list of contents of both the first aid kit and the moving kit itself. One card had places to write down the new address, utility information, and phone numbers. The moving kit consisted of: zip ties, packaging tape, pen, box labels, and a 21-piece tool kit. I also designed the vinyl graphics. I had fun with this project and the most challenging part was my desire to create a sense of movement within the logo.
 
The assignment for this project was to design a survival kit, I chose to design a moving survival kit. I used a clear plastic paint can as the packaging container and as the container for the first aid kit that I included inside. I made four instruction cards, describing the list of contents of both the first aid kit and the moving kit itself. One card had places to write down the new address, utility information, and phone numbers. The moving kit consisted of: zip ties, packaging tape, pen, box labels, and a 21 piece tool kit. This was the first project that I learned how to work with vinyl graphics. I had fun with this project and the most challenging part was my desire to create a sense of movement within the logo.
