What is Packaging Design

Packaging design focuses on the dynamics 
of containing and presenting products. When 
designing for packaging, you will be thinking 
more in 3D to consider how design can 
be applied to form, structure, and function 
considering tactile materials. 
If you love working in 3D and like pursuing 
solutions for more print and tactile design, 
then you may want to focus on a career 
based in packaging design.

In the mid-1980s desktop publishing and graphic art software applications introduced computer image manipulation and creation capabilities that had previously been manually executed. Computers enabled designers to instantly see the effects of layout or typographic changes, and to simulate the effects of traditional media. Traditional tools such as pencils can be useful even when computers are used for finalization; a designer or art director may sketch numerous concepts as part of the creative process. Styluses can be used with tablet computers to capture hand drawings digitally. Computers and software Designers disagree whether computers enhance the creative process. Some designers argue that computers allow them to explore multiple ideas quickly and in more detail than can be achieved by hand-rendering or paste-up. While other designers find the limitless choices from digital design can lead to paralysis or endless iterations with no clear outcomes. Most designers use a hybrid proces...
