Change in design

In class today we refined our idea further by looking at visual cues to our flavors range. It was raised that vector style imagery was not an effective tool in identifying our brand as we want consumers immediately see the slice range as this is our selling point. We looked at using photographic imagery of the original slice patterns to trigger the association and adding gestural drawings of the slices to further communicate this idea.

We had feedback from other groups that our idea was cohesive and it was something they would definitely buy - but not all the time. This is one of our tensions (indulgent and everyday) we are hoping that the association of heavily iced and sweet slices will be balanced through the window in the packaging were the biscuits will be more plain looking thus being less indulgent.  

So far we are trying to balance our tensions by having heavily image based, full colour, average everyday bagged packaging.


After seeing examples of students previous work we spoke with the tutor about our limitations in terms of being a competitor for Farmbake. We then realized we are allowed to go futher ouside what we had limited ourselves to. This lead us to looking back at some packaging ideas we had needed to tone down previously. This is our next steps as we can expand our ideas into something a bit more creative and innovative.
