Double A – Edge package for A4 paper
The common problem is to take out paper as people want to take too difficult. Edge package for A4 paper’s opening part is an acute angle, not right angle so people can take paper out as they want. And people turns over a bunch of papers to prevent to provide some papers to printer at same time and this package make it easier, too.
Existing A4 packages made from thin paper and it isn’t include information about how user can open the package so sometimes it is teared, and then people throw away the package, not use. I include the guide-broken-line on the ‘Edge package for Double A’ so people can tear off easily and use the package.
3. The Intent: What point of view did you bring to the project, and were there additional criteria that you added to the brief?I found the inconvenience that people don’t feel because they accustomed to that and make it convenience by small change. But I exclude complicated structure and process so that people can see how to use intuitively so this package’s structure is just a hexahedron like exist A4 package.4. The Process: Describe the rigor that informed your project. (Research, ethnography, subject matter experts, materials exploration, technology, iteration, testing, etc., as applicable.) What stakeholder interests did you consider? (Audience, business, organization, labor, manufacturing, distribution, etc., as applicable)The common difficulty when people take A4 paper is take out as they want to. When people count page of book, they roll the book so that they do it easier, and then count the page but A4paper can’t be rolled because of its package, so some people take bunch of papers out first, and then count out as they want, and put the rest of papers into the A4 package but when they put in, the papers can be crumpled easily. Some people in the office keep the A4 papers in the drawers but if so, dust quickly accumulates.
So I designed the easy method to take out. I change the box’s side shape from rectangle to parallelogram so the opening part is acute angle not right angle and people can take paper easily. And people turns over a bunch of papers to prevent to provide some papers to printer at same time and this package make it easier. So, I designed this for all people who use A4 paper.
5. The Value: How does your project earn its keep in the world? What is its value? What is its impact? (Social, educational, economic, paradigm-shifting, sustainable, environmental, cultural, gladdening, etc.)The main value of ‘Edge package for A4 paper’ is people can use A4paper easily. It reduce people’s unnecessary effort, process and even time. Add to this, it reduce paper trash caused by people’s mistake when they take paper out, and jam of print machine. And it made from recycled paper without bleach so good for environments. It made from 3mm hard box so it can be reused on the user’s desk continuously. After people use whole paper, they can use to put another paper or reusable paper. If so this package will place on the user’s desk with the company’s name continuously and user will remember the A4company.
Good end user approach. (Not sure about the Sustainability)
