In this comprehensive design revamp project for Philips mobile packaging, initiated on September 28, 2011, we aimed to streamline box sizes, simplify artwork, and enhance cost-effectiveness. Our objectives included standardizing structural designs, refining graphic artwork, and elevating the unpack experience. We explored two central concepts: "Product is King" and "Lifestyle is King," tying them into the overarching theme of connectivity. By leveraging contemporary visual identities and lifestyle imagery, we sought to ensure consistent messaging and strong consumer recall while reducing execution time and costs.
