Design Details

Unique Properties
The meatball packaging is designed creatively based on the raw materials of the product. The layout combines them in the form of modern graphics. The various types of raw materials are distinguished by color contrast. Reflect the sense of modern fashion at the same time increase the interesting expression of the product, and the strong contrast of colors in the shelf display terminal will have a good sense of visual impact.
Inspiration
Inspired by the combination of animal graphics and color composition, the design of this package integrates the traditional customs of Chaoshan area in China that like auspicious things. Meanwhile, the design of the red envelope around the product is also designed to have a better sense of experience with consumers.
Challenge
In this project, the most difficult thing is how to combine a variety of animal images into a package with the characteristics of Chaoshan region in China, while the packaging presentation should have a sense of modern fashion. Finally, through reading books and referring to a large number of design pictures, I found that modern graphic composition and color composition can well integrate these points. Finally, I began to design in this way.
