Packaging Design As Entertainment
July 10, 2008
To me it doesn’t matter what part of the packaging world you’re a part of, it’s always interesting to see the newest things that package designers come up with.
Okay, I’ll grant you that some of the things they dream of can border on the kooky, impractical, and just plain odd.
But regardless, even those “out-there” ideas can yield a wealth of inspiration and insight on packaging of all types. Often, the concepts that challenge us the most are the ones that are the most valuable in terms of making us really think of how we view packaging and the many possibilities for it.
My personal favorite sites for packaging design are The Dieline and Box Vox. They're updated frequently and are almost always loaded with new stuff -- a feast for anyone who enjoys cool visuals and creative thinking.
