For this package design series, I set out to create a luxury line of alcohol infused chocolates confections. I wanted to focus the design on hand-done typography and illustrative mark making. I chose to use jewel tone paper for my packages as well as a gold foil technique to highlight the type and add to the luxurious design.

I was able to practice a unique process using heat activated foil and a laminator. When printing with a laser style printer, there are heat activated elements in the toner that bind with the foil and adhere to one another. In addition to the foil technique, I physically mocked-up all packages and created a fabric-lined wooden box, coasters, a bottle of bourbon, and a jar of cherries to create a box set for the bourbon flavor. The idea being that if this product were to be sold online, the customers would be able to order gift boxes for the individual flavors.

I was pleased with how these packages turned out and I had a lot of fun in the process. I am interested in pursuing package design in my future so this was a very fun project for me.
