Good is...? Packaging inspiration

In reference to today's studio workshop (here), I decided to look at existing packaging designs in relation to the 'nostalgia pack' design idea I devised.

Higgins India Ink

This hand-crafted wooden box with black and white labels was designed by Alex Sophocles. The traditional aesthetic of the box itself and the bottles used for the ink compliment the gothic type of the logo, whilst still retaining a sleek and concise approach to the design as a whole. The contents are cushioned therefore there is no need for individual segments to hold each item.

LG Design Studio

This book showcases the work of LG Design Studio over the past 2 years and due to its confidentiality (of only being handed out to the senior members of the team) the designers developed and styled the book using the concept of a secret dossier with subtle technical details throughout. To convey the secrecy and exclusivity of the work each book was delivered in individually number-stamped envelopes.
