About Mi Bluetooth Headset Mini Confezione per auricolare
Mi Bluetooth Headset Mini è un packaging creato per un auricolare sportivo compatto. Il guscio dell'auricolare è essenziale e presenta un unico pulsante circolare. La confezione utilizza immagini di musicisti celebri, così che il guscio ovale venga letto come una testa e il pulsante come una bocca aperta. Il risultato evoca un cantante o un direttore d'orchestra e conferisce carattere a un prodotto semplice. Un vassoio in PET alloggia l'auricolare e il comando nella parte anteriore, mentre i cavi restano nascosti. Una copertura in carta mantiene salda la struttura. Il progetto punta a conquistare un pubblico di utenti tra i 18 e i 29 anni.

To make it more interesting, the design use images of famous musicians in the packaging, contributing to a personification of the product: the oval shape becomes the head, and the button becomes an open mouth. This creates the image of a composer passionately singing or vigorously conducting an orchestra, giving voice to an otherwise low-profile product, at the same time highlighting its design element.
