Storytelling Through Packaging Design: Launceston

Storytelling Through Packaging Design: Telling your brand story through your product packaging

Join us for a practical, inspiring session designed to help you make packaging decisions with greater clarity and confidence.

Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to breathe new life into your existing packaging, this workshop is designed to give you the tools and inspiration to take the next step with confidence. Together we’ll explore how effective packaging not only protects your product but elevates your brand, creating value through strategic, thoughtful design. If you're feeling overwhelmed by the process—you're not alone, and you're in the right place.

This workshop will demystify the stages of packaging design and production, and provide practical insights and creative inspiration. We’ll examine what makes packaging work and what doesn’t, from aesthetics to functionality to compliance.

This 3-hour workshop is led by Tasmanian designer Demelza Rafferty. Demelza's love of design has led her to work on tier-1 brands around the globe in Amsterdam, London, Shanghai, Montreal, and New York City. Since returning to her birthplace of Tasmania in 2018, she works closely with her clients here and around the world to shape and grow their brands and products, no matter the scale.
