Designed by Gerlinde Gruber, Austria/Vienna.
This packaging was designed for the swing Aufschwung by viennese Designer Michael Hensel. The simple and cost-saving cut was made out of corrugated cardboard and needs no adhesive. The design offers optimal characteristics for presentation caused by the open cut. Look and material can be seen and touched without opening the packaging. Grip holes provide an opportunity for easy carrying. The packaging design is heavily inspired by the swings shape and function.
The swing is soon available at gabarage upcycling design. In the meanwhile you can mail to: Michael.Hensel@gabarage.at
The swing was awarded the Re:design[net]WORK-Award 2010, Re:design Network.
Very interesting concept, unique and eye-pleasing, much better than just showing the swing into a massive box.
