Product Description
Product Description
Unlike other packaging titles, which simply provide templates to copy, this book enables designers of all packaging types to create 3-D packaging forms that are specific to their needs rather than based on an existing design. It teaches a simple enet' construction system n a one-piece 2-D configuration of card seen when a 3-D package is opened out and flattened n which enables the designer to create a huge number of very strong 3-D packaging forms that are both practical and imaginative. Each chapter concludes with photographs and net drawings of 6n10 creative examples of packaging designs made using the principles outlined in the preceding chapter. <BR><BR><I>Structural Packaging </I> gives the reader an understanding of the underlying principles of packaging construction and the technical knowledge and confidence to develop a greater number of their own unusual and innovative designs than any comparable book.

Definitely buy it, May 11 2012
By Chia Lynn Kwa - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Structural Packaging: Design Your Own Boxes and 3-D Forms (Paperback)
A fantastic resource. The book explains the fundamentals of creating sturdy 3-dimensional forms out of paper. Once you're done with the basics, it teaches you how to invent your own forms. There's even a chapter on common closures that I found really useful. Figuring all the info in this book out yourself is possible, but would take waaaay longer.
