OUGD603 - Crackers
Brief and Research The initial brief sent by the client was to design eight crackers for their company titled Marigold Gifts. The research illustrated above is therefore the research which was carried out at the very beginning. However, the idea of creating a traditional, sophisticated design soon changed when the client wanted something completely different. The outcome for them was therefore not particularly tasteful and extremely dissatisfying to work on. Therefore, this research has been
taken forward and used to create a portfolio piece. As the crackers required for the client were to be bought for ÂŁ30 for a box of eight crackers, the same principal was applied to this updated version. The overall finish therefore needed to be a high end and bespoke product. The one particular example which was found to be particularly memorable was the giant cracker. The idea of creating a larger, special cracker felt different and appealing.
