PROJECT 2

Subject: Designing a packaging and a logotype for a china bowl.
Brief: Creation of a packaging which reflects the idea of "Chinese Design". Consider specifications related with packaging, cultural stigma and the product itself. (The end packaging should not look like a chinese design. It should be a contemporary design that carries traces of related specifications of Chinese design)

In this project you will be working on packaging design for the company called "Çinimini". The aim of the packaging is to create an identity suitable for the product. You are first required to design a logotype for the product. Afterwards, you are to give form to your packaging in accordance with the determined visual identity.

Try to be as creative and as inspiring as possible with your approach. Do not forget that this is not a label design. Consider different alternatives. While designing a packaging; you will be dealing with the problems related with structure, material and their relationship to the product. (Consider the nature of porcelain. What kind of object is it? Is it a luxiurious item? How would you reflect the soul of an object with this packaging?

Format: Free
Color: Free
Text: You should design a logotype for the company called "Çinimini". In addition to the logotype you should use web address and a slogan. (ie: www.cinimini.com.tr)
