The Relationship Between Packaging Design and Brand Identity

While many other areas of design have commercial aspects, the success of a piece of packaging design is inextricably linked with its ability to sell a product.
Packaging the Brand discusses the implications of this commercial function for a designer.
It explores methods of visually communicating the value of a product to its target audience and examines the entire lifespan of a piece of packaging: from its manufacture and construction, to its display in various retail environments, to its eventual disposal and the associated environmental concerns.
