Student Spotlight: Lindsey Faye Sherman

 

 

We featured Lindsey Faye Sherman's work awhile back here and here. This is another packaging project she completed as a student at Maryland Institute College of Art:

"The Kinder Kid’s audio books offers an interactive and whimsical approach to Dr. Seuss classic stories. I designed a storage sleeve with two movable trays within the CD’s holder allowing both sides of the package to simultaneously open revealing the inner content. The Packaging was inspired by the children's thick chipboard style book. I wanted the packaging to be as engaging as the stories."

"The Echo Park Time Travel Mart,  a leader in convenience retailing, sells everything you need before you take a road trip through the fourth dimension. You can grab time-machine fuel, a can of mastodon meat, and a cup of coffee in one quick stop. "

Earplug Packaging by Florafauna

 

We came across this nifty packaging for earplugs by Minneapolis-based Florafauna, a studio that considers itself "half design office, half screen printing operation:"

"Earplugs are not just for industrial workers, soldiers on the front line or for muting the sound of your neighbors doing the ole in ~ out, in ~ out while you're trying to sleep. If you attend as many live music shows as we do, you'll want to pack your ears with a pair of these reusable earplugs. The package is designed to store and keep your earplugs clean and safe so you can carry them in your purse or back pocket or, wherever before and after the show. Plus, they're letterpress printed for your pleasure! Stick these in your ear holes at concerts you'll thank yourself later in life."

OrangeBeautiful Letterpress Cards packaging

Emily from OrangeBeautiful sent in this packaging for their Lattice Line of letterpress cards:

"Since a lot of the greeting card packaging tends to be soft-fold clear plastic boxes, our letterpress-printed, die-cut paper boxes seem to be standing out in the market. They're both a better-looking box for merchandising, and a more eco-conscious way of packaging due to the materials & production used AND the fact that customers can keep their cards in the box rather than tossing the packaging once they've gotten the product home!"

Wee See

Loving the design for Wee See, a series of DVDs for ages 0 to 100:

"Part art installation, part pacifier, Wee See is a collection of black-and-white animations built from basic shapes to delight both child and parent. As vision develops slowly over the first months of life, Wee See provides surfaces of bold, well-defined artwork to engage your baby’s curious mind and bring the screen to vibrant life.

With great sensitivity to the delicate nature of the audience, Wee See’s animations move methodically slow and maintain an extraordinary simplicity yet remain endlessly inventive.

With both DVDs containing an original score by Tim DeLaughter, each moment has extra meaning. The same level of playfulness and care at the heart of the imagery also shines through in the music."
