The Design

About Mitu Embalagem de Escova de Dentes

Mitu é a embalagem de uma escova de dentes elétrica sônica desenvolvida para crianças. A caixa é feita de papel e não contém plástico. Elementos de desenho animado e ilustrações infantis cobrem as superfícies, de modo que desembalar se assemelha à leitura de um livro ilustrado. Uma gaveta deslizante revela uma sequência de imagens que vai da cárie à placa bacteriana e, por fim, aos dentes brilhantes, à medida que a caixa é aberta. Depois de desembalada, a caixa pode ser guardada como um livro ilustrado ou um brinquedo. A embalagem protege a escova de dentes e ajuda as crianças a despertar o interesse pela escovação.
