For this project, we were asked to "redesign a take-out food packaging experience with consideration to it’s sustainability. In our throw-away society, restaurants usually specify their packaging choices based on conventional sizes/materials or perceived budget restraints. Not often enough is consideration is given to the user’s experience of it, how it leverages their brand or how it impacts the environment.

 

Designers can have a power impact on all phases of the user experience. Often our involvement is limited to the duties of creating graphics and specifying materials. This project is meant to challenge your design muscles and give you an opportunity to think up and down the entire design process. In this assignment, research and concept will be the most important items you deliver.

 

Select a food establishment and redesign one aspect of their take-out experience. The establishment’s business must primarily be take-out (or a significant percentage must be), and you must choose one aspect of that business to redesign.
