Equal Parts Packaging And Content

April 5th, 2008 | Packaging |

We are in a period hailed as the decade of design. Louis Cheskin’s theory of “sensation transference,” is still relevant, even more so today. In a nutshell, Cheskin believed that when people assess something in a supermarket or a website, they will unconsciously transfer sensations they have about the design or packaging of the product/website to the product itself.

This is more important now because consumers are faced with time deficit and an explosion of infinite choice. In order to win people’s purchase decisions you need to have a kick ass design that influences how they feel about the product.

However, packaging is only a portion of the user experience, the content of your product influences the remainder. In the case of Zwiebel Hackbraten, there is a disparity between what one perceived to have purchased and what was actually bought once opened. It is an example where design stopped at the package without considering how a person will interact with the product. Would you be a repeat buyer after experiencing the incongruity between the packaging and the end result?

It takes effort but you should always be striving to make a great looking package with an even better product on the inside.
