Design Details

Unique Properties
Most juice packages have designed with real pictures of fruits and related elements but they are different. They are drawn by hand in Cubism Style.
Inspiration
The main reason that inspired to design these juice packages in this different appearance was to make them distinct on shelves for getting attention of every generation. Most people like Cubism Style.
Research
Before design, the design group researched about 2 weeks to see the concept and appearance of other packagings in markets to know and find their path. To be different and attractive, and because of the limitation of Flexography Print, they decided to design in Cubism style with flat colors.
Challenge
There were 3 hard part: 1.There were 8 flavors. Choosing 8 colors that show the flavors and not to be similar the other colors. 2. This kind of style has many details and managing them to have a good aspect was the second hard part. 3. The visual unity in all the flavors was important.
Realization and Technology
All fantasy faces, fruits and elements were doodled and drawn on paper, then they were scanned. After that they were illustrated by computer by Adobe Illustrator. In some cases they were edited several times.
Operation and Interaction
Cubism style is attractive and pleasant for every generation. Also TETRA PAK Print is Flexography and it is limited, because of this Eslamparast Studio decided not to use gradients colors and use flat colors.
