Fish Scale Packaging Concepts

This Packaging Concept Features Fish Scale Plastic

— August 13, 2021 — Eco
Paper and packaging company Antalis and Brief Cases recently announced the winners of the Smart Luxury Packaging – Cosmetics Brief competition held with Norwich University of the Arts, and the winner is a packaging concept that includes fish scale plastic. The winning design by student Lily Tye, Dip, is a concept for a swimming-inspired brand with pool-friendly cosmetics that are sustainably bottled. The challenge was for students to design packaging for a fictitious, high-end start-up focused on enhancing the unboxing experience. The branding for Dip is bold, complete with typographic elements, classic black and white schemes, copper-colored accents and elements that resemble drips.

For winning the competition, Tye will get to see their design produced by Antalis and exhibited at the upcoming Packaging Innovations event this year in London.
