PROJECT BRIEF
+ In today’s culture, we do not buy something for the product itself. We buy products because of the packaging. + Follow a peer, and create a product that can enhance their life. + Create packaging that enhances it’s usability and attractiveness. The product can be imaginative, but the packaging must be intelligent, creative, and dynamic. + Create an infographic that shows information pertaining to the product and packaging. + This project will challenge design, tangibility, and craft.

PROJECT OVERVIEW
+ This project taught me the importance of process. There is no way that I would have been able to create packaging like this in a couple days. I really liked mocking designs up and seeing what they would actually look like. + The process of finding a product was the hardest part for me. Once I found the right product, it seemed easy from there on. Everything started to click and make sense. + The project as a whole was really useful. We got to incorporate someone we already know. We had control of how the design worked and what packaging would complement that. And we got to make something that is useful, not just something that will hang on a wall. + This project taught process, usability, design, and (almost most important) craft.
