[Week 12] Packaging 101
I’ve always been drawn to the world of packaging design. The idea of seeing my designs on store shelves has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. But as I’ve learned during my internship, there’s a lot more to packaging than just executing a pretty design on Illustrator.

Design school taught me a lot about aesthetics, but it didn’t quite prepare me for the practicalities of packaging design. I’m learning firsthand that understanding sizes, estimating costs, and making precise measurements is just as important as having a creative flair.
After finalising the design, we printed a test version in-house to check the dimensions and overall look.This was a crucial step in ensuring that the final product would meet the client’s expectations and fit perfectly on the shelf. This gave me a newfound appreciation for the entire packaging process.
