Mysterious Object Packaging

  • Hannah Brown
The brief was to invent an exciting, bizarre, romantic, heroic history for an object I purchased from a charity shop. I had to create a presentation package for the object that reflects its mythical past. The illustration and typography were the most important for this 3 dimensional package.

At face value it looks like the object can be found anywhere but I discovered that it has an exciting mythical story and is extremely valuable and highly collectible. I decide to sell the object but realise I need a packaging solution that illustrates the value and history of the object using original imagery and type. The aim of the brief was to create a packaging solution that illustrates the value and history of an object. It is an extremely valuable and highly collectible object with an exciting mythical story. The packaging must illustrate the story through original imagery and type. The object is a sculpture of Ganesh, which is the elephant-headed god represented in parts of Asia.
