A few pages from my sketchbook, from research into different kinds of packaging, through to ideas and idea development to planning out my final idea. I've decided to go for a book - as packaging for the data (the typeface will be stored on an SD card.) I think my idea is going well at the moment as I don't know of anyone else who has gone for a book. (I guess it's a bit touch and go as to whether it's actually packaging.)
Although I've gone for a book, it won't be an ordinary book! My first plan was to make a book with a CD being held in it. But then I thought about this type of book, with folds. Experimenting with it, I found out that it works by fanning it out. I'm making this a statement (hopefully) by putting patterns on the top to see, and patterns inside on each page, with a little information on the type.
The deadline is in about 2 weeks now and in that time I need to:
Research patterns, work out where these patterns go, find the right paper to do the job, design the front and back covers, make a little pocket for the SD card, and make a small hinge or something to keep the book fanned out.
