Cooperation

To let sustainable packaging become a more common thing in this era, i think cooperation between designer and some big company are important too. The reason why it is important is because most of the big company have enough funds to make an interesting advertising to attract most of the consumer. They can introduce the product through tv ads to let consumer know and understand the meaning of sustainable packaging design. Other than that, big company can have cooperation with famous artist which can lead consumer to the road of sustainable world. Those artist can make sustainable packaging as the trend in this era, through this, the new generations will follow this trend in the following years too. This is how important the cooperation between each other, a cooperation can make a little changes and make this world become more beautiful and environmental friendly.

A good packaging design

The packaging of products play an important role in our daily life.A good packaging design not only have to be nice, be a sustainable materials design, but it has to be have other uses for the packaging itself too. For an example, the sponge company Twist began with making products derived from fully sustainable resources, and completed the cycle by wrapping their products in equally sustainable packaging. Twist company have design a special packaging design.Twist's sponge towel packaging can be turned into a colorful bird feeder after consumer open the packaging. Carton board are the materials which used by most of the designers all the time. Their dual function not only to protect and carry a product but act as a reusable object as well.So, this is the most common material that designer will consider to use it. Other than that, a good packaging design have to be a packaging product that will not hurt consumers. Designer have to be alert which kind of materials or design can be safely use by consumer and also have to think of different stratum of peoples who will have to possibility to use that packaging product.

Sustainability is not only redesign for our life, but also redefine the way how we think. Designer have to become more aware of power of imagination and and how they look at metadesign level. Designers can help us to change our cultural become a more fresh and new cultural. Designers can effect changes not only the changes of our clutural, but also our lifestyle and material or resource that we will use for our sustainability design.

Underlying ugliness of products

Sustainable packaging are something like Art+Science. Its because most of the packaging have to use some science knowledge especially sustainable packaging and combine with the creation of designer. Every product have connect with environmental problem. The most important thing is most of the beautiful product have an underlying ugliness, consumers cant really find out that problem or maybe they dont even feel that this is a problem that happened in this century now. So, most of the designer now are trying to create something which is "total beauty" but not only beauty on the product's appearance! Most of the designer will think of how to make a particular product have more function but they forgot to think about the fabrication of the product which means how to make the product. Nowadays, designer are not only have to think of how they want the product be, but they have to think of how they want consumer and environment  or maybe this world be. So that our world will not have much of environmental problem.
