Creative Edge Software, developer of the award-winning iC3D packaging design software, is challenging packaging designers to embrace total creative freedom powered by iC3D in a “no-holds barred” competition to design a premium beauty package. Running in conjunction with How Design Live 2018 and The Dieline Conference, the winning entry will be announced and awarded during the event in Boston (April 30 – May 1).
With the top prize of a year’s subscription to iC3D including personalized web tutoring – valued at $15,500 – the competition requires entrants to design packaging for a limited-edition perfume, make-up item, or nail lacquer intended as a VIP gift by a luxury beauty brand. Using a downloadable iC3D trial license, designers have free rein on styling, naming, form, function, and the materials to be used. Entries will be judged on their degree of innovation, aesthetic qualities, material choices, special effects and how well they have met the “client” brief. The winning design will be selected by a panel of How Design Live judges and displayed at the Conference alongside other entries.
The iC3D How Design Live competition is open to any member of a company attending this year’s conference. Designs must be submitted no later than April 12th 2018 via the dedicated website:
