DIY Packaging
Investigate the properties of a variety of materials and consider how they can be used to protect products during transport while considering the problem with plastic packaging. Students will work collaboratively with re-use materials to design and make packaging for a range of weird and wonderful items. Students will use a design process and simple low-waste construction techniques to create a prototype of their packaging, then present it to the group explaining the different elements they have taken into consideration.
