Heather Wheat: Project 2















Still working with the type and the color of the type, but this is the idea that I'm working with.

Kimberly Duke, Project 2

It all started with the mood board and sketches...


The box will be a simple 2 sided box; the front side slides into the back like the box on the mood board above. The packaging for my product will be a filing cabinet.

[Originally... I designed it with the intent that it was to be given as a gift, therefore it will not be visible through the packaging. I was going to make a manila folder booklet with photos and information so the buyer will know what is in the box... then remove it before giving it away.]

Later on I changed it to a box with windows. I had problems with the size of the box, it was too big for the stand. Here are the photos from that point:

The tag that has everything the box includes was stapled to a fabric strip to tie in the fabric on the figure...

And the font at this point was a basic sans serif... I changed that later too.
The final box front fits perfectly, I wrote out "Thoughtfull" in chalk to give it the texture, and it matches the tag. And the manila folder tag was laminated on the top of the box.
