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!

i couldn't agree more. its sooo much about packaging! especially when it looks like the adorable sliced bread notebook or the library candle. love! xo, Claudia
ReplyDeleteThe 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:)

ReplyDeleteI love the sliced bread and notebooks. Also, the soaps from anthropologie as well
ReplyDeletethese are sooo beautiful!! happy holidays, danni!
ReplyDeleteI'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?

ReplyDeleteYes, 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!
ReplyDeleteThank you Danni for the nice words. I am so glad you enjoyed the classes. All my best to you and Nick this first holiday as husband and wife. You two look as happy as ever! Cheers.
ReplyDeleteI saw the ex libris candles at my local bookstore and wanted one so much, but can't burn anything in my apartment (university owned). :(
ReplyDeletethe packaging and name are definitely what got me.
