PACKAGING SOLUTIONS
Working closely with varied clientele over the years had brought interesting opportunities to design and produce packaging for many kinds of products... most recently with a shoe manufacturer and distributor which licensed lines such as Dickies, Spalding and other brand names... this also brought opportunities to work with other licensees and their apparel products.
BILL
BLASS A shoe box for this name brand was designed to stand out
in a crowded mid-market department store, by virtue of its simple design, it did
just that.
SPALDING
Tagging a line of women's sports underwear,
which was displayed on hangers, was a way to show the apparel in action.
The backs of the tags displayed effective line drawings and simple washing
instructions.
JAKE
Packaging for a brand of men's underwear. A variety
of styles, and competition for display space in department stores, required
a design solution that would work in crowded and visually confusing displays.

PRODUCT PACKAGING Supermarkets and their customers seem to be enthralled by products form other lands... in this case the spaghetti was packaged and sourced in Italy, by a Boston based supplier and branded with an Italianized brand name.
WRANGLER BOOT BOX & TAG This brand name is known world-wide, and so it was decided that to maximize the tie-in with their jeans, the footwear line would show jeans on the box and tag. Another subliminal visual feature was using a warm yellow in the graphics, which resembled the stitching in their clothing.
DICKIE'S Packaging for this well-known brand presented a challenge... to prioritize
consumer recognition and instant shelf visibility. In
a crowded marketplace, the need for easily readable labeling and tagging
was also one of the solutions required for the line. This solution was
a success, and recognition of the brand was reinforced.
SPALDING A simple packaging solution for socks which were displayed on
hooks in a crowded department store environment. A simple, colorful and effective
branding solution helped the brand and the line stand out from its competitors.

PACKAGING This package was designed as part of
a proposal to obtain work from this innovative fish processing plant in Gloucester,
MA.
