Om Constellation Lighter-emballage

Constellation er et emballagedesign i begrænset oplag til samlerlightere. Emballagen lyser op gennem små prikker på overfladen, og lysene kan tændes ét efter ét, så de danner forskellige stjernetegn. I slutningen af effekten fader lysene langsomt ind og ud. Lyseffekten kan genoplades med et USB-kabel og holder tolv timer ved fuld opladning. Lighterne sidder fast på inderemballagen med magneter, så æsken også kan bruges som display. En skjult trekantet støtte foldes ud på bagsiden, så emballagen kan stå oprejst. Papir er det primære materiale.

Unikke Egenskaber
The packaging engages the user by lighting up. It is turned on, one by one and is connected together to create different zodiac signs. It enhances the esthetic aspect of the packaging and highlights the concept in a unique way. The lighters can be directly placed on top of the inner packaging as magnets are attached underneath. Moreover, the packaging can be used as a display tool - the user can make it stand by pulling out a triangular bar which is hidden on the back side of the packaging.
