The brief for this project was really interesting as we got to delve into a Product Design way of thinking as well as Graphic Design. We were to create & brand products based off of things that aren’t able to be branded. We were to illustrate this in a shocking way, in turn creating a disruptive product.
I chose to brand different feelings, in the sense that if you bought them as a set, you could use them as if they were in the form of something one can consume. After some thought I chose to have the feelings of Contentment, Delusion and Connection come in the form of three Poppers bottles. I felt it added a dark aura having poppers, as that’s often associated with drug misuse, a serious issue that I felt was appropriate to base it off. I made the designs look eye-catching and almost scientific looking within its patterns, in order to give off a pharmaceutical vibe, while also looking like a popular trendy commodity that anyone can buy.
