We live in a changed world. Old patterns of want and desire are gradually being replaced and new values espoused. No longer content with passively accumulating the fruits of mass production, consumers are demanding a leading role in the very act of creation itself. Within this realm, simple substances are being explored anew for the permutations they can offer be it wood, fabric or paper, that most mutable of materials. With the simple addition of print, designs are uplifted, speaking to individual preference while conveying the required information. The charm is further heightened by an interactive component, inviting the user to participate in the artistic process, by completing an anticipated design, or injecting ones own vision into the end result. Hands On collects a captivating array of the best of todays interactive design in print - with projects incorporating magnets, stamps, stickers, stitching, pop-outs, scratch-away, paper folding, model building and more!

"Interactive packaging is an innovation that has been adopted by the packaging design industry. It enables consumers to interact with packaging through their smart devices. Although the technology is already available, it is uncertain how many consumers use it or will ever find it useful. This research measured the young Millennial (18-24 years old) consumers' perspectives and their preferences for interactive feature on food packaging. College students between 18 to 24 years old were chosen by using a purposive sampling method. First, a questionnaire asked for information about the participants' behavior surrounding two topics. The first topic asked about their smartphone usage, and the second topic asked about the factors affecting their purchasing decisions concerning food products. Next, the survey focused on the consumers' perceptions and their experiences with interactive activities. QR codes and Augmented Reality were the variables. Participants without any awareness of interactive features and participants without any experience in using interactive features, even though they were aware of them, were introduced to the interactive packaging functions through a video in order to help them to better understand interactive packaging features. Lastly, the survey asked for respondents' opinions and expectations of interactive features in terms of the content, both function and form, and their preferred method of access. In this part of the study, coffee and tea products were used as example products. The data was analyzed by using Descriptive Statistical Analysis. A sample of 80 students between 18 to 24 years old participated the survey. Participants were more aware and have experienced the QR code scanning more than the Augmented reality scanning. Basic information and product reviews were the top two rated for the content consumers considered important. Short paragraph and text with graphic elements were preferred interactive content formats. Consumers preferred using a web browser application on their phones to search for product information more than using a scanning application."--Abstract.

Explores new and innovative materials designed to change the way consumers experience product packaging The third in a series of ten volumes exploring the constantly evolving frontiers of design, Material Innovation: Packaging Design presents products whose packaging reaches new heights of innovation. The range is diverse and international, from “plantable” packaging that can be buried in dirt after consumer use, later to emerge as a plant to alcohol bottles with labels that react to music, and bespoke, collectible jars of Marmite XO. Material Innovation: Packaging Design explores not only the latest advances in consumer product packaging but also how such advances could fail or flourish within the increasingly digital landscape of the twenty-first century. Case studies featured throughout the book profile the innovative use of materials by a particular practitioner, practice, or company, offering specific and elegant solutions. Clearly structured and illustrated throughout, this book will connect reader (whether student or professional) to material.

This book will help you design media that engages, entertains, communicates and 'sticks' with the audience. Packed with examples of groundbreaking interactive design, this book provides a solid introduction to the principles of interactive communication and detailed case studies from world-leading industry experts. The Fundamentals of Interactive Design takes you step by step through each stage of the creative process – from inspiration to practical application of designing interfaces and interactive experiences. With a visually engaging and exciting layout this book is an invaluable overview of the state of the art and the ongoing evolution of digital design, from where it is now to where it's going in the future.
