Packaging

Taking the packaging of the tissue into consideration I believe that I need to make something that is both apealing to men and works. I am toying with the idea of producing a pocket pouch that can hang off a belt loop or/and belt. This would stop the worry of embarassent from carrying the pocket sized tissues around, instead tissues could then be put in the pouch and carried around freely.

As regards design, I made a quick mock up of what a pouch would look like so I had some visuals to work with. I thought about having a two sided peice so it had a diffrent design on each side, one just jetted out and another with some kind of vector aniation to disguise that the pouch is for tissues. As a mock up I used a cold grey in the darker pantone section so that the pouch does not attract direct attention. I then made a quick design of wha an interesting layout concept could be for a young man. I drew out a skull and thunder bolts instead of cross bone, just to keep it masculine.

I think that this is a great starting approach to where I want the products packaging to be going, I have yet to carry out a number of different designs in order for one to be selected. There is a possability I may produce three diffrent types to go in with the machine. similar to the durex how you can get 3 diffrent types of condoms, you can get 3 diffrent types of tissue holders.
