About Andaluz Skincare Skincare Product Packaging
Andaluz Skincare is a secondary packaging design for an organic skincare line based in Andalusia, Spain. The packaging consists of cardboard cylinders with removable lids that hold glass bottles. The patterns are inspired by the ceramic tiles of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain. Polygonal tile motifs are reinterpreted in a modern layout with colors drawn from the local geology.

- Production Technology
- The designs were created in Illustrator and printed on cardboard as cylinders to hold the bottles.
- Design Challenge
- Taking the inspiration of the tiles and then finding new ways to reinterpret in a modern layout with relevant colors; and then working with the printers to get them perfect.
- Research
- The packaging design was researched with an objective to distinguish the Andaluz Skincare brand by using decorative elements unique to the region of Andalusia. First, ancient Hispano-Muslim art and tile work was researched online, in books and by visiting the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain in person. Then abstracts of the tile patterns were printed and wrapped around the bottles to see which translated best from a flat surface to 3D. Elements of those abstracts were taken and modified by manipulating mathmatical elements such as squares, hexagons and equailateral triangles.
- Inspiration
- The design inspiration came from the ceramic tiles of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain. The tiles, which date back to the Nasrid Kingdom of the 13th century, decorate the interior of the Palace and are considered masterpieces of Hispano-Muslim art.
- Project Duration
- September 2019 in Malaga, Spain and final packaging for the products arrived in May 2020
- Operation Flow
- These cylindrical packages with removable lids serve multiple purposes. Aesthetically, their eye-catching, bright colors and geometric patterns distinguish the Andaluz Skincare brand from other products in retail spaces. Practically, the 600g cardboard material protects the glass bottles from scratches and breakage in shipping and handling. It also functions as an enclosure for brochure material. Finally, it adds an additional layer of protection to the natural ingredients, which are sensitive to light and heat exposure.
