| DESIGN NAME: Tic Tac Toe packaging PRIMARY FUNCTION: Packaging INSPIRATION: "We believe the birth of a child is the most beautiful experience of our lives. Our purpose is to celebrate this wonderful moment by creating shoes and clothes as beautiful as the babies themselves and say… Welcome to Life!" Tic Tac Toe. We wanted to make the products special and decided they required packaging that was both an experience in presentation and upon opening. The 'reversible UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: All clothing items come in a sophisticated, multi-dimensional pack. There is no front or back, both sides are equally interesting and beautiful. The front has an endearing deer and fawn die-cut window that shows off our stunning prints. The back has a die-cut heart that is three dimensional and framed in a second heart. Open the pack and a wonderful discovery unfolds. The reversible shoes come in a beautiful “double-sided” pack. The large window allows visibility all around. A perfect gift set. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Clothes pack is carried from a satin ribbon. The pack is presentable from both front and back. To open the pack a flap next to the die cut 3-dimensional heart is lifted to reveal the "Welcome to Life" ™ message from Tic Tac Toe and some further information about the company. The inside flap is again opened, like a book, to discover the care and sizing copy. Opening this flap reveals the neatly folded product. Once the product is removed and unwrapped a further discovery is made with a "Thank You" card. The shoe pack is similar to the clothes pack and is also carried from the satin ribbon. Three clips are released to open the pack, revealing the shoes. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: Both projects took about 3 months to complete and both were printed, in Cape Town, South Africa.
