DESIGNER TISSUE! µðÀÚÀÌ³Ê Á¶Á÷!

Hah, can you even hear me say that? ÇÏ, ½ÉÁö¾î ¸» µé·Á¿ä? I can¡¯t believe I actually wrote ¡®designer tissue¡¯. ³ª´Â ½ÇÁ¦·Î '¹ÏÀ» ¼ö ¾ø¾î ¾´ µðÀÚÀ̳ÊÀÇ Á¶Á÷'. So, yes, for a graphic designer and writer who knows all about the kind of effort one puts into packaging and branding products, I sure fell for it. ±×·¡, ±×·¡, ±×·¡ÇÈ µðÀÚÀÌ³Ê¿Í ³ë·ÂÀÇ Á¾·ù Æ÷Àå ¹× ºê·£µåÀÇ ¸ðµç Á¦Ç°¿¡ ´ëÇØ ¾Ë°í Çϳª¸¦ ¹Ú¾Ò ÀÛ°¡¸¦ Á¤¸» »ç¶û¿¡ ºüÁ³ÁÒ.

But they are so pretty¡¦ the packaging. ÇÏÁö¸¸ ±×µéÀº Á¤¸» ¿¹»Ú´Ï±î ... Æ÷Àå. I swear! ¸Í¼¼ ÇØ¿ä!

They have the ¡®nature lover¡¯ packaging, the ¡®fruity¡¯ packaging, the ¡®woman on the go¡¯ packaging, and then they have the ¡®kids¡¯ packaging. ±×µéÀº 'Ȳ´çÇÑ'Æ÷Àå, À̵¿ '¿¡¼­'¿©ÀÚ ÆÐŰ¡, ±×¸®°í ³ª¼­ ±×µéÀº '¾ÆÀÌ'Æ÷Àå 'ÀÚ¿¬À» »ç¶ûÇÏ´Â'Æ÷Àå. I grabbed 4 of each design packages and made a run for the counter with them with my screaming kids and exasperated husband running after me in slow motion. 4 °¢ µðÀÚÀÎÀÇ ÆÐŰÁö¸¦ Àâ°í ±×µé°ú ÇÔ²² Ä«¿îÅÍ¿¡ ´ëÇÑ ³» ºñ¸í ¼Ò¸® ±×¸¸ÇØ ¾ÆÀ̵é°ú ³²ÆíÀÌ ³ª¸¦ ÂѾƴٴϴ ½½·Î¿ì ¸ð¼Ç°ú ÇÔ²² ½ÇÇàÇß´Ù. It was definitely a ¡®die-hard¡¯ moment. ±×°ÍÀº È®½ÇÈ÷ 'Á×À» -'Èûµç ¼ø°£À̾ú´Ù. You know, when the hero is running away from a bunch of wild bad men with machine guns, and they¡¯re shooting at your feet or something¡¦and there¡¯s an explosion behind you¡¦ and everything happens in slow motion. ´ç½ÅÀº ¿µ¿õ ±â°üÃѰú ¾ß»ý ¶§ ³ª»Û »ç¶÷ÀÇ ¹«¸®¿¡¼­ µµ¸Á Ä¡°í ÀÖ´ÂÁö ¾Ë°í, ±×µéÀº ´ç½ÅÀÇ ¹ß ¶Ç´Â ¹«¾ð°¡¸¦ ÇâÇØ ½î°íÀÖ¾î ... ±×¸®°í °Å±â¿¡ ´ç½Å µÚ¿¡ Æø¹ß ... ¸ðµç°Ô ½½·Î¿ì ¸ð¼Ç¿¡¼­ ¹ß»ýÇÕ´Ï´Ù.

Well, in this case, I was running for checkout with boxes of tissue paper with fancy packaging designs on them. ±Û½ê,ÀÌ °æ¿ì¿¡, ³ª´Â ±×µé¿¡ È­·ÁÇÑ Æ÷Àå µðÀÚÀΰú ÇÔ²² Á¶Á÷À» Á¾ÀÌ ¹Ú½º¿Í üũ ¾Æ¿ôÀ» À§ÇØ ½ÇÇàµÆ´Ù. If I didn¡¯t like the packaging designs so much, I would find it comical enough. Æ÷ÀåÀÌ ¸¾¿¡ ¾È µé¾ú¾î¿ä ¸¸¾à ³»°¡ ³Ê¹« ¸¹Àº, ³»°¡ ÄÚ¹Í ÃæºÐÈ÷ ãÀ» °ÍÀÌ µðÀÚÀÎ. But I am dead serious. ÇÏÁö¸¸ ³»°¡ Á×Àº ½É°¢ÇØ. In fact, I loved the packaging designs so much, after using up all the tissues in the boxes, I would cut out the designs and place it into my ¡®must keep for reference¡¯ clear folder. »ç½Ç, ³­ »ç¶ûÀ» ³Ê¹« ¸¹ÀÌ Æ÷Àå, »óÀÚ¿¡ÀÖ´Â ¸ðµç Á¶Á÷À» »ç¿ëÇÑ ÈÄ µðÀÚÀÎ, ³»°¡ µðÀÚÀÎÀ» µµ·Á °ÍÀÌ ³» 'ÂüÁ¶'Àå¼Ò·Î ¸íÈ® Æú´õ¿¡ º¸°üÇØ¾ßÇÕ´Ï´Ù. I don¡¯t keep a lot of stuff in there because I am pretty selective about the designs that I like, but these packaging designs made the cut. ¶§¹®¿¡ ²Ï ¸¾¿¡ µðÀÚÀο¡ ´ëÇÑ ¼±ÅÃÀû ³»°¡ °Å±â¿¡Áö¸¸, ¹°°ÇÀ» ¸¹ÀÌ ¸¸µé¾î º¸°üÇÏÁö ¾Ê¾Æ ÀÌ·¯ÇÑ ÆÐŰ¡ µðÀÚÀÎ ÄÆ.

You see, this is the kind of thing that happens when you put some effort into making your packaging design. ´ç½ÅÀ̺¸´Ù½ÃÇÇ,ÀÌ ¶§ ´ç½ÅÀº ¾î¶² ³ë·ÂÀ» ³Ö¾î Æ÷Àå µðÀÚÀÎÀ» ¸¸µé±â·Î ÀϾ´Â ÀÏÀºÀÇ Á¾·ùÀÌ´Ù.

They¡¯re going to THROW the PACKAGING away. ±×µéÀº ¹«¸® Áö¾î Æ÷Àå ¶³¾îÁø °Í. So, why spend so much money on the packaging?¡± Maybe you¡¯re also thinking that the money should go towards developing better quality products¡¦for faster shipment options¡¦ or maybe the money should go towards spending potential clients to expensive dinners in Italian restaurants. ±×·³, ¿Ö Æ÷Àå¿¡ ³Ê¹« ¸¹Àº µ·À» ¾²Áö?

But this is what I have to tell you, as a graphic designer and consumer. ÇÏÁö¸¸ÀÌ Àü, ±×·¡ÇÈ µðÀÚÀÌ³Ê¿Í ¼ÒºñÀÚ·Î ´ç½Å¿¡°Ô ¹«¾ùÀ» °®°íÀÖ´Ù. The more effort you put into designing your packaging, more customers will stop and take a look at your packaging or what¡¯s inside the packaging. ±ÍÇÏÀÇ Æ÷Àå µðÀÚÀο¡ ´õ ¸¹Àº ³ë·ÂÀ» ÀÎÁ¤Çϰí, ´õ ¸¹Àº °í°´À» Áß´ÜÇÏ°í ±ÍÇÏÀÇ Æ÷Àå »ìÆìº¸°í ¶Ç´Â ¹«¾ù Æ÷Àå ¾È¿¡ ÀÖ¾î¿ä. Now, does it make sense for me to say now that when they stop and take notice of your packaging, your chance of getting them to buy your product increases?

You see, the role of packaging is to grab the consumer¡¯s attention. ´ç½Å, Æ÷ÀåÀÇ ¿ªÇÒÀº ¼ÒºñÀÚÀÇ °ü½ÉÀ» Àâ¾Æ º¾´Ï´Ù. And without an electrifying packaging, consumers are going to walk past the heaps and heaps of other competitor products¡¦ and yours¡¦ without even knowing you¡¯re there! ±×¸®°í ÀüÀ² Æ÷ÀåÇÏÁö ¾Ê°í, ¼ÒºñÀÚµµ ¸ð¸£°Ô °Å±âÀÖ´Â °Å °ú°Å¿Í ´Ù¸¥ °æÀï Á¦Ç°ÀÇ ¸î ¹øÀÌ°í ¸î ¹øÀ̰í ... ±×¸®°í ´ç½Å ... °É¾î¼­ °¥ ¼öÀÖ½À´Ï´Ù!
