'Yummy mummy survival kit'
After researching Kim Khakh's portfolio, I came across a chocolate 'survival kit' designed for any occasion. This unique chocolate box is aimed at mothers for times in need. The slogan such as 'In case of emergency, break seal' suggests a sense of urgency and acts almost like a rescue or escape route.

The Graphic Designer's Sleep Survival Kit
I came across this very apt design, by a recent student of the college, whilst searching for ideas for our recent 'how to' project. The kit includes a screen printed blanket, pillow and eye mask, as well as a leaflet that fully details why this kit is actually essential, and how to use the products in it.
This will prove really useful in aiding our project as it has been designed specifically for a Graphic Design student, which is part of our criteria. Although our kits are more specific to students with a demanding work load, the design is something we can really focus on. In addition to this, the wit and humour used is something we are keen on including in order to catch the attention of our audience, and to make them feel comfortable using the product.
After a small tutorial with Amber, our group similarly made the decision to include some form of poster or contents manual explaining what the product actually is, what it's supposed to be used for and also what is meant to go in it. At first we planned on just including the contents on the side of the box, but soon decided that these could become lost or go unnoticed. Something more prominent would therefore be needed in order to back it up.
