Original Iteration

Here is an initial idea for my logo.

Searching for Sustainable packaging

I have been looking through various tea products from the U.S. as well as other parts of the world to see what kind of packaging is out there. Here are some interesting ones I found although not all are sustainable.

This first one is from Forte Tea. The leaf on the outside carton is actually the tag used for steeping.

Chai is a loose leaf tea brand. It comes in a pretty standard shaped box, still I like the print on the side.

I liked this one because it comes in stackable tins that are all different colors so they are nice for collecting.

Something more organic feeling.

Arcadia Tea is very eco - friendly. The packaging is minimal and it is all recycled. 

 

initial thoughts

Today is Wednesday, September 17. This is the first day of the sustainable tea package project. In this assignment we are to design a logo and basic stationary set as well as packaging for a tea company called "Awaken". The packaging has to be sustainable in some sense. This could be recycled, repurposed, or biodegradable. In this blog I will be discussing my findings and ideas. This is a really interesting photo I found on Flickr or a recycled soda bottle turned container.
