TED Socks
TED Talk Socks
4.5"x 5.5" x 3/4" Packaging made out of Brown cardstock
Packaging and product line concept based on TED Talks series.
Each Packaging and socks pattern are personalized to the talks.
The idea came from the time a friend sent me a playlist of TED Talks when I was feeling down,
and it really comforted me. I thought that if I had to make a product based on the series of talks,
it would be something that's as comforting as a pair of socks.
The packaging has an easy tear, so users don't need to struggle or tear apart the design when they open the socks
Each packaging has same format but different information and illustration of the speakers
and the talks. On the back, there are title, speaker, summary of the topic, and a QR code
that leads to the video page on TED talk website.
The imagery in the patterns is related to the topic of the talks the speakers are giving.
