Packaging Questionnaire

General

  • People Identify items by recognizable symbols or colors. Also their location in the store. 
  • Someone may discover something new by mistaking the product for something else. They can also read the packaging to see if the product is of interest. 
  • The context plays a big role. If you have a product that is on the lower shelf you may want something that can attract the eye down with bright colors. Or making the product legible from any location with big type. 
  • Once the viewer is home, it is left up to the package to teach the viewer how to use or cook the item. It also gives information on the ingredients and health facts. These things must be well designed so that it is legible for the viewer to quickly understand what s/he is looking for. 
  • The type can be big and minimal in order for optimal legibility. The color palate can also help give directions like color coding information. 
  • Sources can work together by having the same type faces but using different weights to differentiate information. (hierarchy) They can also be aligned in specific order to create organization.
