Label and packaging design
Label and product design are very important in the marketplace, as people are more aware of their purchasing decisions than ever before. Consumers want to know what they are buying and in what quality. This can be deceptive, because often the best-designed products hide poor quality, and it is a good reflection of the importance of this area that today more money is spent on packaging than on content, as consumers often make decisions based on color and shape rather than reading the ingredients. As a graphic designer, I may be reluctant to write this, but as a believer in conscious and healthy living, I feel it is my duty to draw attention to the fact that we should not fall for the glitzy, shiny packaging, but learn to make choices based on content. This does not mean that a quality product cannot have beautiful and sophisticated packaging, because the packaging is not only responsible for the appearance, but also protects the product from damage during transport.
