A blog dedicated to art and design.

So, I feel like I might have found a niche. Being able to have the opportunity to create our own project concepts and deadlines to make our portfolios unique has really helped me realize what I really enjoy doing in the design world. For my first project I knew I wanted to do a package design. It was something that I had been wanting to do for a long time so developing my own concept was pretty simple. I wanted to do a package redesign so I decided to go to the local Dollar Tree because you can find off-brands that I could work with without jeopardizing copyright issues, etc. So after making my rounds, I decided to go with a package of pencil top erasers. My goal was to redesign the package to where it would be appealing to both adults and children. I feel that my final outcome was very successful and I couldn’t be happier with it. The process came very easy for me as far as measurements, placement of text, direction of the text, figuring out where tabs should be placed, etc. I think I only had to adjust only two times to make it align properly. I also learned that the more simple the packaging, the better. Overall, I have discovered a new found passion for package design and hope to do more with it in the future.
