UX Packaging Design

I regularly develop new packaging concepts for emerging Food and Beverage, Health and Beauty, and Home and Lifestyle brands. I handle the research, positioning, and creative direction; what I need is a skilled designer who can translate those strategic concepts into polished, print-ready packaging.

Here’s how we’ll work together
• You’ll take my concept boards, copy decks, and dielines (or help build new dielines when required) and turn them into fully-fledged visual designs.
• You’ll produce flat artwork, photorealistic mock-ups, and final production files that meet printer specifications.
• We’ll iterate quickly: I share feedback, you refine, and we keep moving until the design is commercially viable and on-brand.

What matters most
• Solid grasp of modern FMCG / D2C packaging trends and shelf impact.
• Mastery of Illustrator, Photoshop, and 3D/mock-up tools such as Dimension, KeyShot, or equivalent.
• Proven experience preparing press-ready files—accurate color profiles, bleed, varnish layers, embellishment call-outs, barcodes, etc.
• Reliability for an ongoing cadence of projects rather than a single hand-off.

Typical deliverables
• Layered source files (AI/PSD) organised for hand-over
• High-resolution mock-ups for client approval and e-commerce listings
• Print-ready PDFs, plus any spot-color or specialty finishing layers

If you enjoy collaborating closely, care about the craft of packaging, and can turn a strategic idea into something that looks great on shelf and survives the production line, let’s start with the first brief and build a long-term partnership.
