2016 American Package Design Awards Winner!

GE Appliance Parts Packaging Redesign Wins in Research, Retail and Industry

Work on the redesign of GE Appliance Parts Packaging has been recognized by Graphic Design USA with a 2016 American Package Design Award—within the Home, Garden and Industrial category.

The annual GDUSA competition celebrates well-designed graphics and the power of package design to create emotional links with the shoppers at the moment-of-truth.

The redesign—of over 80 products—focused on creating an overall brand block of packaging at shelf and enhancing shop-ability with an entirely new information and iconography system. The project was taken in front of consumers on two occasions—a week long Internet community with both consumer and contractors providing feedback on early concepts, as well as a series of focus groups to better understand package communication and brand value.
