Contest Brief

PLEASE NOTE: ONLY DESIGNS THAT ARE FEASIBLE FOR REAL-WORLD APPLICATION AND PRODUCTION WILL BE CONSIDERED. WE ARE NOT LOOKING FOR CONCEPTUAL MOCKUPS THAT CANNOT BE IMPLEMENTED BY A BOX MANUFACTURER. FOR INSTANCE, MOCKUPS CREATED WITH SOFTWARE LIKE MIDJOURNEY, THAT DON'T CONSIDER ACTUAL MANUFACTURING CONSTRAINTS, WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

Description:

Hello, I am the founder of AmoreDiPET, a pet care startup. We're planning to launch a product called the AmoreDiPET Starter Pack, which includes all the essentials for a new puppy or kitten.

One unique feature of our product is the packaging itself. We envision a box design that can not only safely house our products but can also be easily transformed into a pet bed for initial use. The challenge here is to design a box that is attractive, sturdy, and functional while being simple and cost-effective to produce.

Project Requirements:

Brand-Conscious Design: The design must reflect our brand's image and be appealing to our target audience, which is pet owners. It should visually stand out and create a positive unboxing experience.

Material Consideration: The box needs to be durable, made from safe, non-toxic materials. Sustainable or recyclable materials are highly preferred.

Convertible Feature: The packaging should be convertible into a pet bed with a simple, intuitive process. The design should allow pet owners to easily transform the box without the need for extra tools or complicated instructions.

Production Efficiency: The box's design must be straightforward to produce, with as few manufacturing steps as possible to keep costs and production difficulties to a minimum.

Clear Instructions: The packaging should include clear, simple instructions (either printed on the box or as an insert) on how to convert the box into a pet bed.

Skills Required:

Graphic Design
Experience in product or packaging design
Understanding of manufacturing processes, cost-efficient design, and material selection
Bonus: Knowledge and experience in sustainable or recyclable design
Use erederence logo for the desing orange and cyan

    I think the product is for newborn, please correct me if wrong and how much weight the pets would have and should I make considerations for them to climb or walk into the bed on their own.
