Spa Products Research

I found on the Szechenyi baths website that there is a range products that has been made with the thermal waters of the bath. However I feel that as it is an anti-range there would be a limited audience.

This example shows that I could use clear stickers to print my designs onto and but onto a bottle. 


I like this design because it is quite eastern looking and it suggests a certain culture and this is something to consider when looking into my packaging as it is based in a different place/ culture.


In this range the products all have the same style but the colour indicate that they are different, I like the ribbon on top of the boxes as they add an extra elegant touch.



I like the laser cut design I think this works well on this packaging, and it looks open and fresh.


This packaging is feminine and colourful, I like that there are different styes of birds on each product I do think that it is a bit busy.


I like that this range has all different formats shoes and sizes, and the colours make the range really interesting I like that they are block colours I feel that this balances out a loud design and the logo and type is minimal too which again balances the aesthetic.




I like the packaging in this, it's a slightly different format from a box and it looks like a gift.


This again is from the same company I think its more relevant to them as it looks like a bird cage. 



I also looked back at a gift I had received at christmas, which was a Champneys gift box, the handbag was a solid pink leather effect box, which I feel I would not be able to product something like this in this material. 
I was more concerned with what was inside, the products where wrapped in Champneys branded tissue paper, the products where all different but there was usually a sister product. It also came with a shower pouf, which is an added touch and something to consider adding to a gift range. 










I feel that the range below looks like a spa range the gold acts a luxurious touch.






This packaging is strong with the vibrant orange, the packaging also appears to open like a flower and presents the products well.  






This range had been photographed interestingly and the range is very extensive, it appears that the range has been colour coded.

Examples of Web Design/ Layout

To improve my web layout skills I wanted to look at good examples of design in detail and how they work, I think that the interactive element overwhelms me when I try design for web and so I wanted to look at other examples.

The first example is especially helpful as it shows the design across all formats, and its showed me a way of making a web design responsive.
