common grounds, the package!

the next project in the common grounds project series was to create the actual packaging for our food product. i really wanted to do something different with the coffee brand i am creating and produce a modern and unique package design thats unlike whats out there. so i decided to create coffee in a box. i created a package that is similar to the normal bags coffee is sold in but adds a little more structure and boldness to the overall presentation. my favorite part of the package is how it resembles bags of coffee but is just enough of a difference to make you want to pick it up and check it out. you'll have to forgive the white fold lines of the thick card stock, i had to do the best with the resources i had to print the mock up package. but it folded up into the real deal and actually holds the coffee beans so im pleased with the final:



and just for kicks, i thought i'd photograph the package on the shelf with the other foods to see how it looks up there with the big guys

and the best thing about the box is that it will poor out easy...not like those bags that you end up losing coffee beans all over the place. :-)
