Contrasted with the discomfort and limitations women experience during their periods, the concept behind Scarlet sanitary pads' packaging was inspired by the ideas of freedom and relief, qualities the product is designed to deliver.
Nature provides a sense of peace and freedom that modern urban life often lacks. To capture this emotional relief, the packaging design draws inspiration from natural landscapes and uses soft watercolor techniques to express these sensations. The result is a calming, poetic visual language that aligns with the product’s promise of comfort and care.

Operation Flow
This product is chosen by the buyer because of its pleasant and eye-catching design.
Research
The discovery phase included market and competition analysis. The focus of this study was on the design style and look and feel of existing products by conducting market visits and desktop research.
The conclusion of this study showed that in the design of the packaging of most of the products available in the Iranian market, no attention has been paid to displaying an image that gives the audience a sense of relaxation, and this is a point that can be used and differentiated.
Inspiration
The design shows a sense of liberation, freedom, and peace.
For this, I went to nature and its peace. Showing a landscape of different plains with flowers and trees inspires a pleasant feeling to the audience.
