Product Description

A practical and inspirational resource book of templates.

The Packaging Templates Sourcebook presents a stunning showcase of 140 new, innovative and classic packaging and paper engineering ideas across a variety of areas. Accompanying each project is a detailed template, which shows the reader how to copy, fold and construct each project from material that is widely available. The book will provide a source of inspiration for graphic and packaging designers, both student and professional alike, as it explores the fundamentals of a package at its most basic level. Covering areas as diverse as food and drink, product packaging, promotional material, CDs and DVDs, books, retail and stationary, it is a completely comprehensive guide. The book also includes gatefold templates, some insert card packaging concepts, and a CD-Rom of templates and finished packages, allowing designers to create presentations for their clients.

Customer Reviews

Wow!5
I love this book. The templates are amazing, but easy enough to alter into your own design. Sometimes as a student you need a starting point. My last project turned out amazing and I believe I'll use this book as a reference for along time. I am even interested in other books by this author and Rotovision Publishing. The pictures are great and the design on the packaging a lone is worth it. This book is one of my best if not the best design books I have and more affordable. I honestly would have paid more for this book. My classmates are also looking into buying this book after they viewed my copy. I believe this is a must in a design students library. It gives you inspiration and shows you what good package design is, believe me there are some terrible books out there.

Fantasic!5
This book is a must have for any graphic artist. It's beautifully executed with tons of examples to garner inspiration from. Worth every penny.

Surpassed my expectations!5
I normally like to look and flip through books before I purchase them, but after seeing it's rave reviews I decided to go ahead and purchase the book.
It not only met my expectations as far as providing me with digital templates (which come in .EPS), but it surpassed my expectations by providing me with really inspirational package design ideas. I LOVE this book.
The picture also does no justice to the quality of the book itself either. It is a very nice book. It is a necessity for anyone studying graphic design.
