Packaging

The graphic design first years have finished their semester and their final project was the packaging brief. The premise is a simple one: take a low value item and repackage it in order to be sold for a higher price. This can be achieved through three-dimensional design, surface graphics or a combination of both.

The tutors have never run this project so early before, but the final outcomes assuaged any initial fears. It was especially pleasing to see some students consider craft and materials (stocks and printing techniques), and also engage with the technicians thereby bringing another dimension to the brief with the addition of techniques such as laser-cutting and embossing.
