our Packaging class was required to design a combo pack of a pair of items that could be used together.
i chose to package loose leaf black tea and cinnamon sticks : -)
inspiration for the packaging design and mood
sketchbook + trying out colour options
i aimed to create packaging that was practical and easy to use, and be sturdy while using the least amount of material possible. i also avoided using any plastics or laminates to keep the whole package recycleable.
for a product that gave such a natural and homey feel, i thought this was quite appropriate.
final sketches and colour treatment
final product dieline + description
printed packaging mockup, complete with brown paper packages for the tea leaves and cinnamon sticks.
while doing research online, i found a song titled Tea with Cinnamon- it is a lovely and bittersweet song.
i chose to use some of the lyrics (http://goo.gl/VCN9DS) in the design because they were so fitting.
