Dutch Packaging Design

This manufactorer, based in Europe, delivers quality toys with a high degree of educational values. These toys are built to last and are internationally recognized with lots of prestigious awards. Stepfive created several packaging concepts that fitted this high standard of quality, while gaining presence due to the use of bright colours and clear typography. Using different materials was a handy tool that allowed us to make a clear difference between the many product groups. We also created an opening in each design that allows buyers to actually feel the products’ quality – an essential factor in deciding wether or not to buy the toy.

Stepfive created several design concepts for the toys including the ones you can see here. White, combined with a strong primary colour or colours gives a stronger result than white with weakened pastels, because that makes it look old fashioned and dirty. In contrary, white gives the designs a fresh and modern look with yet a responsable touch at the same time. Therefore we choose to work mainly with white combined with fresh and bright colours. The design above are shown as 3D view, as separate packaging and as separate packaging on a plastic display stand.
