I will create a range of sellable decorative handmade stationery/gift products, with the help of surface pattern designers. (See deliverables.) I will then design the packaging of these products, which will potentially be sold online or at craft fairs. I would then need to promote the sale of these items.
This brief will hopefully be a live brief, and will include collaborations. It will allow me to focus on improving product and packaging skills, as well as working on my image skills.
Background / Considerations
How much will these products be sold for?
Where will these products be sold?
How many will be made of each product?
Where will the products be printed?
Mandatory Requirements
The products must be made to the highest quality to ensure they are suitable for sale
A contract must be written between the collaborators to ensure all parties are happy
Deliverables
Greetings cards
Wrapping paper & tags
Stickers
Postcards
Notebooks
Photo Albums
Storage Boxes
Tea towels
Tote bags
T-shirts
Poster prints
Printed fabric scarves
& Possibly other outcomes

Rationale
An image based investigation of business and enterprise with a focus on stationery products and packaging featuring collaborative designs.
Statement of Intent
I am going to create a range of potentially sellable stationery designs featuring illustrations because I want to improve these skills, and because I need more experience of working towards live briefs and with other designers.
