![]() Burgopak and GR/DD Create Pop-up Package for Sony's EyePetBurgopak & GR/DD have created an engaging pop-up package for a promotional version of Sony's new augmented reality PS3 game EyePet.Resembling a house-shaped pet carrier, the package features an intriguing pop-up mechanism where the EyePet character jumps up as the carrier opens from a hinged "roof." The package expands entirely, presenting the contents - the game's software, literature and hardware - in an enjoyable and organised manner. Burgopak worked on the EyePet project in conjunction with graphic and interactive design agency GR/DD, who developed the pack's graphics and initial pop-up concept. In order for the idea to be realised, Burgopak's structural design team developed a simple linkage and friction lock that allows the internal surfaces to move through 90 degrees and lock to form a flat table where the contents are securely held. more Burgopak and GR/DD Create Pop-up Package for Sony's EyePet design directory Burgopak > Packaging Design Services added by Levent OZLER |
