About Mi Bluetooth Headset Mini Primär funktion: Headsetförpackning

Mi Bluetooth Headset Mini är en förpackning skapad för ett kompakt sportheadset. Headsetets hölje är minimalistiskt och har en enda rund knapp. Förpackningen använder bilder av kända musiker, så att det ovala höljet uppfattas som ett huvud och knappen som en öppen mun. Resultatet antyder en sångare eller en dirigent och ger karaktär åt en enkel produkt. En PET-bricka håller headsetet och kontrollenheten framtill, medan sladdarna förblir dolda. Ett pappersomslag håller strukturen stadig. Designen syftar till att tilltala användare mellan 18 och 29 år.

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.

Production Technology
The visual design require to hide the wires, only leave the headset and controller out.

By using PET tray inside and a paper cover outside, the front of the packaging only shows the handset and controller.
material: Paper, PET
Design Challenge

Research
Mi Bluetooth headset is a low profile product that targets the lower end of the sports headset market. The retail price for the product is 10 Euro in China. The overall packaging budget was limited to about 0.6 Euro. So it is the design task to add some attractive elements to its packaging and make it outstanding from the shelves.
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.
