D3 F24 Trope

Assigned in relation with Font Mannerisms, my trope packaging design was heavily inspired by Apple's products. These products included the phone, watch, and earbuds. Futura reminds me of products that are very modern and futuristic, and also has significance.

In this project, we were tasked with creating a set of three typographic packaging designs that connect to our assigned typeface. I was assigned Helvetica. Using the fact that Helvetica is a universal and widespread typeface, I decided to design coffee packages. I chose to use Helvetica Neue to depict this so I had access to a multitude of type weights in my design. The statement "Just like a coffee shop, there's a Helvetica on every block" depicts the intent I had for this project. I started with the light pink background and shades of brown. After finalizing my format, I chose a dark green to symbolize dark roast and a light blue for the regular coffee. The back of the coffee bags has information about Max Meidenberg, the creator of Helvetica. I also created four different typographic patterns to add texture.

For this project, I continued my study of Meta to create a brand and three packaged items that represent the typeface and showcase its different variations. To reflect its simple and reliable nature, I turned the font into a brand of office supplies. I designed a ream of paper, a box of paperclips, and a box of staples, all produced by FFMetaBrand.

The Trope Project aimed to explore clichés associated with a designated typeface family. For this project, I worked with Trade Gothic, a typeface historically linked to newspaper headlines and trade industries. Drawing inspiration from this background, I focused on the theme of trade jobs and designed packaging for various types of nails. The color palette was influenced by construction colors which catch the viewers attention.

The trope packaging project played off our our folio project as we had to take the same assigned font and create a packaging scheme out of what the font reminds us of. I once again explored the warm and cozy feeling I received from my font, Mrs. Eaves, and created line of candle packaging boxes and the labeling system for the candle itself. I used fall scents and colors to play up the warm and cozy theme and titled the line "Warm & Cozy by Mrs. Eaves"

For this project, I had to use the Univers typeface and draw inspiration from its aesthetic in picking the product I would design a package for. I explored the industrial feel of it and ended up designing tool packaging, specifically for a screwdriver, pliers, and a wrench. It is a cohesive system that is tied together with the color system and different weight variations of the Univers typeface. One incorporates the original Roman style, the second uses 47 light condensed, and the final one uses 57 condensed oblique.

The Trope Project had us use the same typeface that we were assigned for the Font Mannerism Folio. I chose to transform my assigned typeface, Sabon, into a chocolate brand, leveraging its timeless sophistication. Each product features a different weight of Sabon.
