Cereal Box Design: ● Your Job is to make your own Cereal package.
Goal • Your goal is to create a new design for a children’s cereal box. The company is tasking you with creating two potential new box designs that have the same volume as the original design but that are slightly different. You will have to use your knowledge of mathematics, art and design. In addition, use what you know about why consumers are attracted to certain products more than others to help you.
Audience • Your audience will be the company leaders as well as a few focus groups. First, you must tell company leaders about the re-designs you are proposing and the mathematics behind each. After this, your design must gain the approval of focus groups – one of children between the ages of 5 -10 and another of parents between the ages of 30 -45. The company plans to ask the focus groups to give feedback about whether they like the new designs.
