NATIONAL PACKAGING DESIGN DAY – May 7

 National Packaging Design Day is observed annually on May 7th.  Celebrate the art of packaging design as well as design professionals.  The global design community and those appreciative of beautiful, well-crafted packaging through sharing inspiring designs, exchange ideas, historical facts, information and awareness to the craftsmanship behind the package.

Living in the golden age of packaging, the packaging is now much more than a means to protect a product or display a name; it’s the physical representation of a brand to the consumer.  Packaging is compelling, it’s not just what’s on the shelf that matters, but the unveiling process as well:  the layers, the textures, the moment of anticipation before seeing the product. People may not think of the packaging designers when purchasing a product or while opening a gift, but they exist, orchestrating the process from sketch to shelf.
