| DESIGN NAME: Fine Herb PRIMARY FUNCTION: Culinary herbs planting INSPIRATION: With the trend of clean and healthy living, people start planting their own herbs at home and add in fresh culinary herbs while cooking. The research I found showed that poor postharvest handling and a lack of knowledge on suitable packaging system for fresh herbs can cause wastage, poor quality and limited market opportunities. Thus, it inspires me to design a packaging which can not only reduce the waste by planting fresh culinary herb but also create an enjoyable planting experience. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: By creating a carton board packaging for 20-35 years old urban white collar to grow culinary herbs at home.Aim to enrich the lifestyle of urban people by providing a new planting and cooking ritual. The pack contains packs of herb seeds, pots, compost and growing instructions.This packaging can transform from a hexagonal shape to three connected parallelogram components through an elegant structure design which can also serve as a home decoration. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Tear the sleeve along the marked line at the back of the packaging to open it, take out the box and unfold it to three standing components. Take off the top lid of the component by push thumb into the small hole and tear along the dash line. There is an herb seed capsule and a bag of nutrition soil inside. Open up the bag and put soil into the component. Then plant the seed from the capsule into the soil. Planting instruction card is included in the box for detail guidance. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in December 2016 in Shanghai and finished in August 2017. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Packaging Design |
