After showing the design to Mr Shamsul, he said that the design was rather contemporary instead it should be more traditional so I should make some changes to the design. Also for the box, instead of two boxes separately I should have one to hold all the items as it comes in a set and also include an instruction booklet to guide the player.

So with this feedback in mind, I made the changes and printed out the box.

After that, I showed Mr Shamsul the final outcome and he said that the structure needed some changing also the box was rather flimsy and suggested ways on improving the structure. He also said that I should elevate the sticks and the instructions so that its easier to access it.

With the feedback in mind, I made changes to the structure of the box and redesigned the box as I was unhappy with the design. Here is the process and the final outcome.

REFLECTION

Experience

Week 9; I had quite a hard time figuring out the designs as they were not working out at first however I managed to come up with a new design but was still unhappy about it. Week 11; I again struggled with changing the designs and also figuring out the structure of the box.

Observation

Week 9; I observed that I take a while to come up with designs. Week 11; I observe that for the box I should have used a more sturdy material such as a mounting board.

Findings

Week 9; I found that looking at other people's work helped to spark some inspiration. Week 11; I found that creating a packaging takes time and also many trail and errors until its right.
