OUGD601 - Practical - Ethical Considerations

Ethical Considerations


The production of the final design and the material and processes used could be considered in conflict with helping and having less impact on the environment. The final design used a plastic laminate over the front of the design, however this was purely to enable the print to stop cracking when folded as the papers used for print in university are not suitable for packaging and folding. Printed professionally the packaging would not need this laminate on the top and would be easily folded whilst still having the shiny finish. This would also make the design completely recyclable and therefore more sustainable.

The design is both positive and factual so does not mislead consumers through greenwashing and is not offensive through the use of language or imagery.

No primary research on participants was carried out during the research for the essay so the project had no impact on people in this respect. 

All images within the design are my own so there is no copyright issues.
