Now this blog is the whole package! (Literally)

Now this blog is amazing for anyone who is interested in going into the packaging, branding and typography sector of the graphics industry. If you're not then I'm afraid you'll have to be bored for this post.

The DieLine blog (don't be put off by the name... please!) basically, is run by a team of designers who review various packaging designs on their blog. They post just about any and every type of product on here, which exposes readers to a wide range of techniques and materials which can be used and which techniques work for which type of product.

The designers post the images and write a VERY succinct comment on it. Despite this, they are very useful as basically anyone can get their work reviewed by professionals!



I seriously love how such a wide range of products and their packaging are reviewed on here, as this can easily inspire people to broaden their ideas if they are in this sector themselves. I, myself am new to the packaging and branding sector, and personally, I would find this blog to be very useful for my ideas. This is why I am following their blog.


This post from their blog is completely different: the above image depicts a packaging design whereas this one focuses on the actual branding. I am very inspired by this design as it is so lively and energetic in terms of colour, which I think reflects the energy one can get from drinking the drinks. If people think about the purpose of the product then it should be easy to design and brand it in my opinion.

This blog can do just that as it reviews a great variety of products and design techniques, which I find very inspiring as it can broaden my own skills.
