Alzamora Group skilfully crafted this elegant packaging solution that resembles a luxurious jewellery box. Inspired by the arches of GERnétic’s logo, this packaging not only protects the product but also presents it as a beautiful gift.
The pack boasts a truly unique and structural design, ingeniously fashioned from a single piece of cartonboard to create an almost spherical case. While its appearance is undeniably spectacular, the folding of the Stora Enso virgin fibre cartonboard, to create the shape, can be done quickly.
The project presented a challenge to showcase the product in a visually stunning manner, while ensuring ease of use and cost-effectiveness. The aim was to optimise productivity and reduce expenses without compromising on the pack’s functionality or aesthetic appeal. Alzamora Group has used minimal materials to create an intricate three-dimensional volume.
Jury Comments
“GERnétic is an expertly designed package; a lot of skill is required to create a three-dimensional spherical shape from just a single piece of cartonboard. It manages to achieve the perfect balance of encompassing characteristics of high-end luxury, while retaining a simple and minimalistic style. Most of all, the packaging’s structure is extremely stable, without the use of any glue, forming a shape that just makes you want to play with it. This is the perfect demonstration of how you can achieve incredible results with cartonboard.”
