Best Practices

Design Elements

Brand Consistency: Maintain logo placement, color palette, and typography across packaging
Hierarchy: Establish clear visual hierarchy with brand name, product name, and key information
Whitespace: Use negative space effectively for premium feel
Materials: Consider how design translates to different materials (matte, gloss, kraft, metallic)

Technical Considerations

Bleed Areas: Account for printing bleed in design requests
Die-Cut Windows: Specify if product should be visible through packaging
Structural Design: Describe box/container shape and dimensions
Print Finishes: Mention desired finishes (foil stamping, embossing, spot UV)

Industry Standards

Food Packaging: Include space for nutrition facts, ingredients, allergens
Cosmetics: Plan for ingredients list, usage instructions, warnings
Beverages: Account for bottle shape and label wrap-around
Supplements: Include supplement facts panel and FDA disclaimer space

Color Palette: Specific colors or mood (earthy, vibrant, monochromatic)
