TALIUS TECHNOLOGY Packagings

TALIUS TECHNOLOGY

Packaging Design | 2015 - 2016

CONTEXT

From November 2015 to September 2016, I joined Talius Technology (a Spanish brand focused on marketing online and in store tech products to a general, wide customer target) as a graphic designer, with hands also set on the copywriting in Spanish of simple commercial texts & its translation into English. But, most of all, my work there was all about coming up with attractive and creative packaging designs, since the key factor in the company's marketing strategy revolves around products appearance: applying an eye-catching design to any product packaging (as well as snapping a good set of photos of it) was essential.

SOLUTION

My duties at Talius Technology covered the whole range of tasks involved in the production and marketing of any product nowadays: from contacting the Asian supplier to collect further info on the product and its package diecut (overseeing their production works in China), to writing and translating into english the product's commercial description, generating also pictures for social media and in store applications (such as posters and catalogues) to help its marketing and positioning.

APPLICATIONS

When working on the packaging design of each product, I usually created and developed a visual style according to the product's appearance and commercial name, thus delivering every time a packaging with an unique branding, tailored to the particularities of each product. The whole process was always carried out in a mostly agile and fast process: often, the complete development of a product was allotted a maximum of 3 weeks.

SCHIZOPHONIES

Packaging Design | 2019

CONTEXT

On February 2019 I was commissioned by Chinowski Garachana (musician and sound hacktivist) to design the sleeve artwork for his album Schizophonies of a Gentrified City, a six-parts fragmented composition in which the author criticises the gentrification of the streets of Málaga's old town and the situation of culture and arts in the city.

SOLUTION

Provided with a structured set of graphic resources from the artist and entrusted with absolute creative freedom, I designed a sleeve's art aligned with the album's sound concept: a minimalist collection of tracks made of drones, grainy textures and field recordings from the streets of Málaga.

APPLICATIONS

Light, grainy and almost atonal on the outside; dark, enriched with text and pictures but still minimalistic on the inside, the whole design process for this project took just two weeks for its completion (plus an extra week for its print production): a CD in a cardboard sleek cover, with a folded inlet included inside.
