Contest Brief

We are an online website which sells vegetable seeds in the UK.

We have following products:
"Winter Harvest Vegetables Starter pack",
"Summer Harvest Vegetables Starter Pack"
"Spring Harvest Vegetables Starter Pack"
"Autumn Harvest Vegetables Starter Pack"
"Me And Dad Collection"
"Me And Mum Collection"
"Joe Swift's Allotment Collection"
"Mini Allotment Collection"

To save costs we would like to have a single cardboard box which we ship the products in. The individual products are then differentiated by a sticker placed on the box. In the mock-up attached the sticker is yellow. Please note the sticker design is NOT part of this competition.

The task for the designer is to create a stylish 1-color box-design which will make the box appear attractive.

The box's are given as gifts, so need to look attractive.

Here is an example of the contents of one of the products ("Winter vegetables starter pack"). 10 packets of seeds. 6 Coir pots (coir is coconut husk and is a eco-friendly alternative to peat), 10 coir compost pellets, small propagator, ball of twine, 50 wooden plant labels, detailed sowing instructions.

Our company name is "vegetableseeds.net" however, we brand ourselves as "vegetableseeds.net with Joe Swift".

Joe Swift is a UK TV presenter and is a director of our business.

I attach the template for the box.

I also attach a mock up of the box with an earlier design attempt.

I attach Joe Swift's signature.

You may wish to visit one of our competitors (Seedpantry.co.uk) and view their starter packs, to view some excellent examples of good box design.
