"The concept to this project was to take a brand that's known to be inexpensive and merge it with a far more expensive brand, in a way creating a collaboration. For this partnership, I've created a fictional trunk show, wherein Swedish Fish is the inspiration for a new line at Brooks Brothers, and the new line is called "Red Fish". Collaterals include: a trunk show invitation, clothing tags, and a redesigned Swedish Fish box."

"Under Michael Osborne's Packaging 4 class, students of the Academy of Art University examined neighborhood grocery store Trader Joe's and reassessed its existing brand. The designers arrived at the solution to create an established store brand for everyday essentials at a value (Joe's Pantry), as well as private labels for the differing Trader Joe's demographics. Private labels include Muse, a beauty line consisting of pure ingredients for the natural woman, Equi, an innovative health product line for the health-conscious shopper, Bazaar, an exotic food line for the adventurous palette, and Little Joey, an trustworthy pharmacy line for parents who value honest products while caring for their infants."

Tazo Tea

Student

"My love of tea led me to repackage Tazo's line of Well-Being teas. I focused on the teabag shape and function as well as the graphics of the packaging. The teastick eliminates the need for a stirstick or spoon,  making the product easy to use on the go. The consumer can be assured they are making the right choice by photos of the actual loose leaf tea on secondary packaging.  The jar containing the teasticks is a reusable container or can by recycled."
