The ChallengeWe reviewed the current packaging market to address the strengths and weaknesses of various designs. Our aim was to redesign folded packaging boxes with an ergonomic concept using recycled materials.
|
Draft DesignThrough the use of 3D design-modeling software we transformed our initial ideas into considered design. The chosen concepts have been investigated through folding simulated steps in order to finalize the suitable candidate packaging configuration to be designed for manufacturing.

Design for ManufacturingBased on cutting specifications, we finalized and converted our 3D designs into DXF and DWG files. Two packaging concepts (for coffees and beers) were selected to be produced under die casting machines.
|
PrototypingA series of prototypes were printed out to optimize the dimensions of the packaging boxes and to evaluate the user experience with the preferred folding mechanisms.
