product package design:

December 22, 2010

One of my favorite classes in college was package design, we had an awesome teacher and the projects were super fun. I'd love to design product packaging all day long ;) I think product packaging is a really important element in design, what do you think? Here are some nice product package designs I found: most are candles/soaps -- they really have good design!

  2. The sliced bread notebook is absolutely charming! I can't even count how many times I've bought something simply for the packaging alone! I think I am set for life with pretty hand soaps:)

  6. Totally think package design is huge and LOVE these examples. I have to pass this on to my friend who is a stellar pacakge designer herself.

    I attempted my own "package design" with my gift wrapping this weekend :)

  16. I'm with you. I've always loved Mrs. Meyer's designs, and those Anthropologie soaps are beautiful. How can you possibly open one to actually use the soap?

  18. Yes, yes! I often find myself checking out the packaging more than the product at many stores. :0) I worked in the package design industry for about 6 years before starting my own business, and it has definitely informed/inspired my own work!

  20. I saw the ex libris candles at my local bookstore and wanted one so much, but can't burn anything in my apartment (university owned). :(
    the packaging and name are definitely what got me.
