Sustainable Packaging Design for E-commerce

Start by meeting Elena who tells you about her background as a designer and shows you the sustainable packaging projects that have inspired her work. She also talks about some of her influences and shares several projects from Tatabi Studio.

Next, analyze the eco-friendly trend and examine its underlying concepts to help you better understand the different possibilities for creating sustainable packaging geared towards selling products online. Learn how to define your brand’s personality and make a mood board that reflects your project’s overall strategy.

Once you've established your concept, start transforming your idea into physical packaging. Choose providers and materials with some help from Elena, who shows you a variety of sustainable options available on the market and shares some tips on how to create a cost plan and make smart purchases. Design your graphic system by experimenting with different colors, typographies, and compositions and prepare your first mock-up.

Once you have the first samples in your hands, it’s time to design your packaging system piece by piece. Carefully craft the primary container that holds the product, then boxes to protect it, and even design a shipping case for online purchases.

Lastly, learn how to prepare the final art designs and send them off for printing. When you get the final printed materials back, the only thing left to do is put them together. Now you can start selling your products online and protect the environment at the same time!
