Is the packaging being created for the first time or is there an existing option? The packaging is being created for the first time.


Formulate the main task of the packaging design:

We will use a 4-flap brown cardboard box (example attached).

Box dimensions: 45 cm x 32 cm x 13 cm. Opening of the box from the shorter side.

It is necessary to develop a print design for the box and tape. The backpack will be packed in this bag, which in turn will be in the cardboard box.

All inscriptions in English.


Style in which the packaging should be made: Follow this link to see examples of packaging that are liked - https://www.pinterest.com/dhriadunov/упаковка/


Base colors: One print color (presumably black. But if there are other ideas - welcome).


Are there mandatory graphic and text elements to be used (photos, texts, licenses, images, drawings? Indicate the placement on the packaging)?

On the cardboard box, it is essential to display the main feature of the backpack - expansion. For this, the attached drawings can be used. 

List the main advantages of the backpack described above, 

indicate "Made in Ukraine" (preferably in the style of Ukraine NOW), 

write "Black" and "Grey", and next to them a square, crossed out with a marker that will clearly indicate which color the backpack is inside.

International postal employees should see on the box the symbols "fragile item", "do not expose to moisture" and the dimensions of the box (example of symbols attached).

On the box, it is preferable to place in small font (do not emphasize this) the inscription: "Created thanks to our Kickstarter & Indiegogo backers".

Check our Kickstarter and Indiegogo pages. Perhaps an idea will arise about what else can be indicated on the box.


In what format do you want to receive the source material?

A format that the printing house can use for printing on boxes is required. Presumably, this is Corel Draw. 

Updates
Update #1

We are proud and happy to produce it in Ukraine. But unfortunately, this is not a strong advantage in the global market. Therefore, we make the inscription "Made in Ukraine" on the front of the box, but not in large font.


The box will be wrapped with tape around the entire perimeter (on the narrow side of the box). It must be displayed. The tape should be universal so that it can be used for other purposes/products as well. Therefore, a simple inscription "Thank you" may be quite suitable. We just need to choose the right font and its size to match the packaging style. The width of the tape is 50 mm.

Update #2

Please display the specified advantages as benefits, not just as "product composition". Friends, these are advantages that other products in the world do not have! (I am exaggerating, but still...). Convey this in the design!
