PACKAGING DESIGN FOR PLYWOOD SAMPLES
THE PROJECT TASK WAS TO DESIGN PACKAGING FOR SAMPLES OF MATERIALS THAT THE COMPANY "SIMPO SIK" SENDS TO THEIR POTENTIAL BUSINESS PARTNERS. THE COMPANY PRODUCES SHEET MATERIALS MADE OF WOOD, AND BECAUSE OF THEIR WEIGHT, PACKAGING WAS DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE SAMPLES FROM DAMAGE, BUT IN OUR INTERPRETATION POTENTIAL PROBLEMS WITH WEIGHT OF PRODUCT ARE AVOIDED BY MAKING THE PRODUCT ITSELF A SUPPORTING ELEMENT, NOT THE PACKAGING.
THE PACKAGING IS MADE FROM ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS AND GRAPHIC DESIGN IS INSPIRED BY THE CROSS SECTION OF THE MATERIAL IT CONTAINS. PERFORATION ON THE BOX IS PLACED ON THE FRONT PAGE AND PARTIALLY ON SIDE PAGES, TO MAKE CONTENT MORE VISUALLY ACCESSIBLE AT ANY TIME. THROUGH THIS SAME HOLE THE HANDLES ARE PLACED, WHEN THE PRODUCT SHOULD BE PULLED OUT FROM THE BOX. THIS ROPE HAS A DUAL FUNCTION, BESIDES SERVING AS A HANDLE, IT CONNECTS ALL THE SAMPLES, THUS PREVENTING THEM FROM GETTING LOST.
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
