About Mi Bluetooth Headset Mini Embalaža za slušalko

Mi Bluetooth Headset Mini je embalaža, zasnovana za kompaktno športno slušalko. Ohišje slušalke je minimalistično in ima en sam okrogel gumb. Embalaža uporablja podobe znanih glasbenikov, tako da se ovalno ohišje bere kot glava, gumb pa kot odprta usta. Rezultat spominja na pevca ali dirigenta ter enostavnemu izdelku daje značaj. Pladenj iz PET-a spredaj drži slušalko in krmilnik, medtem ko žice ostanejo skrite. Papirnati ovoj ohranja strukturo trdno. Zasnova je namenjena privabljanju uporabnikov med 18. in 29. letom starosti.

Unique Properties: The design of the product is quite minimalistic, with only a circular button on the shell. 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.

Inspiration: In current China, the young generation has a rage for animation, comics, and games. They spontaneously create a lot of trending content that personified objects into lively characters. To make this low-profit product easier to approach the young generation, our design strategy is to imbue a product with personality and to visually personify the product.
