Interaction design at Luxe Pack Monaco
L’École de design Nantes Atlantique shows off its students packaging projects in an interactive exhibition at the 2011 Monaco Luxe Pack show.
The exhibition presents packagings that the design school’s students imagined on chocolate, water and wine themes. The result is surprising, water in capsules, china wine bottles and fun, yet elegant, chocolate boxes, all enhanced by an enlightening scenography. The visitors will be able to virtually touch the students’ works thanks to the EMOTIC 32 points multi-touch table, giving them the opportunity to explore the objects.
Chocolate
Patrick Chesneau, Instructional Coordinator, lead the workshop on chocolate for the Design, Communication and Space 2-year technical degree students. They worked on designing a creative, functional and elegant packaging to contain chocolate truffles. The packages were to be high-end, size adjustable boxes that contained a presentation booklet of the chocolates. Fun yet serious, and elegant were the key words to describe the esthetic of the product.
Water
The Retail, exhibition and stage design students and third year graphic design students work on the water theme in a workshop named “H2O, Ecology the new luxury.” The workshop was lead by Paul Vickers, Designer, assisted by Patrick Chesneau and Nathalie Templier, Program Coordinator for Graphic Design. The workshop aimed to familiarize the students with luxury packaging. Students worked on the notion of ecology and how it could be integrated into the design of luxury goods. What come out of this workshop are water bottles that put our table carafes to shame.
Wine
Wine being essential to the French, it was only natural that some of our students pick it up as a theme of their final year project and their professional project, it is the case for the works presented at L’École de design Nantes Atlantique exhibition. «Profils de Loire» (Adrien Cussonneau, 2009) and «Porcelain» (Thibaut Godard, 2011) were developed for the «New eating habits» master’s program, headed by Jean Patrick Péché.
This exhibition was realized in partnership with EMOTIC.
The interactive application was realized by BAKASABLE, a company created by Heidi Ghernati and Nicolas Cloarec, two graduates from L’École de design Nantes Atlantique.
