Exploring Packaging & Print Design
Box Designs
Made in Adobe Illustrator
Backstory:
I started by designing a twisted leaf illustration. After creating the leaf, I realized it would be a perfect element for a box design. With some research and inspiration from different artworks, I refined the idea and finalized it into a complete box design.
Esko ArtiosCAD
I designed the artwork in Adobe Illustrator, aligned it precisely with the dieline, and then imported it into ArtiosCAD. Using ArtiosCAD’s 2D to 3D conversion tools, I applied the graphics onto the structural design and created realistic 3D renders.
Art Style & Flow:
Clean, modern minimalistic layout with smooth curves guiding the eye across the box.
Subtle flow lines/elements create a sense of movement and freshness, matching the theme of shampoo.
Balanced spacing between logo, product name, and description ensures readability and elegance.
Overall design feels airy, light, and refreshing, avoiding clutter.

Smart Layouts in ArtiosCAD (Esko)
I am proficient in using ArtiosCAD’s Smart Layout feature to efficiently create and organize packaging designs. This allows me to automatically optimize the placement of dielines, components, and graphics on the sheet, saving time while ensuring precision. I can manage layouts for complex structures, prepare them for manufacturing, and maintain alignment between design and print-ready files.
Metallic box with effects
This metallic box design demonstrates advanced print finishing techniques. I prepared the production separations for two effects: a metallic layer to create reflective surfaces beneath the artwork, and a UV drip-off layer to add contrasting gloss and matte textures. Combining these effects in one design required precise separation setup, ensuring each finish registered correctly and enhanced the overall premium look of the packaging.
