Packaging Design - Mock Ups

Mock up #1

The first net that I have tested was this one:

It features a rectangular viewing panel that can be covered with clear plastic or acetate so that the contents can be seen, we can utilise this so that our brand shows through or keep the packaging design constant and change the information that shows through the panel.

This box would contain a 50ml medicine bottle in which the perfume will be stored.

This box also has an easy opening which is very common in medical packaging to make quick access possible

These are some photographs that I took during the photography induction, these were taken inside a light box which works very well for photographing 3d objects and is what we should use when we are documenting our final products.

Mock up #2

As part of our perfume packaging range we are considering how smaller quantities could be packaged as it is common practice to sell a variety of volumes of fragrances.

As we are pushing the medical aesthetic we thought that the perfume could be applied using a pipette or a needle less syringe.
This net features support for a thin bottle neck, we could adapt this so that it holds a pipette firmly which will be much more professional and nicer to engage with than just having a pipette floating around in a box.

Neck support:

If made out of thicker stock then this structure would be very solid

The closing at the bottom is glue less which makes construction much neater and flush.

We are going to get inducted on the blow moulding machine so that we can make supports that will hold the bottles firmly when they are sitting within the boxes.

I assembled this packaging that could be used to store the syringe perfume sample:

This net was successful, it holds together tightly without any glue and the viewing window can be moved to suit our range of products.

This net would be suitable for two tablet packets and an information leaflet in the middle

The net didn't seem to fit together very well, with tabs that seemed to not do anything

I thought that this net would suit housing all of our perfume range in if the net were to be edited so that it would contain four bottles. 

The picture in the book is very deceiving as the proportions and flush edges don't exist.
I couldn't figure out what these additional holes were meant for: 

This insert which is supposed to make the separating walls seemed to be too big for the rest of the net.

I will stop using this book as it doesn't seem to be very helpful with any nets that need multiple parts.
