PACKAGE DESIGN TRENDS

Minimalism

Trends the minimalist design trend will continue. Simplicity and clarity have a target audience anytime, anywhere. Minimalism speaks of simplicity, but rather, it has the effect of conveying a strong message because of this simplicity. Even if it is not a package design trend, minimalism is often used in package design because it is a design that fits well with any product category.

Not sure what exactly minimalism is? Literally, the main theme of the design is ‘simplicity. Naturally simple. Design elements should not be clustered together, and important messages should be revealed naturally rather than hidden in complex designs.

If you want to make a package according to the trend, feel free to ask for a quotation for custom-made boxes!

One of the best ways to accentuate minimalism is to use contrasting contrasts. By adding one contrasting design element to simple primary color background. On the other hand, you should pay attention to highlighting one brand element rather than trying to capture everything in the brand story. Otherwise, it could be a rather maximal design. For example, if a brand is focused on sustainability, the design focus is on ‘sustainability’, or if the brand is focusing on good materials, the design theme is raw materials. We focus on delivering the ‘element’.

Through these efforts, focus on ‘one visual element’ and complete your design with minimalism. If we touch on multiple elements just because our brand has so many good stories, it doesn’t look minimalistic at all. So, develop your design in such a way that the typography is big and strong, and the color is only one point color! It would be a good idea to use black and white colors to maintain this clarity, right?

But if you want a clean design, you need to check whether the various patterns match the overall visual of the package. This is because the bold package design must not deviate from the company-wide ‘branding’. Also, when using bold typography and patterns, make sure that there are no collisions between design elements, and make sure that the correct color palette is configured to bring out the sense of unity in the design.

Eco-Friendly Packages

A big trend in the packaging business is pursuing ‘eco-friendliness. Packaging promotes products, drives sales, but eventually ends up in the trash. And the consumer who consumes the product knows that in the end, the packaging also pollutes the environment.
So let’s take the simplest basic steps. First of all, reduce the overpacking. There is no need to wrap the package in too many air caps or tapes. . Because plastic is not biodegradable, the degree of environmental pollution is more serious than other materials. They are buried in landfills and become garbage, or when they harass wildlife at sea and are burned, soot rises. So, if you are using plastic for ‘visual’ reasons, I recommend looking for another alternative.
In fact, one of the trends among companies around the world right now is to use non-plastic packaging as much as possible. While looking for other eco-friendly alternatives. Plastic may look cheap and pretty, but if you pay a little more attention, you can find other packages with good quality at a reasonable price.
