Specialist brand design in Sydney
Effective packaging design balances shelf impact, communication, brand building and creativity. From start to finish, our award-winning design team consider every aspect to strike the right balance.
What makes great packaging design in the 21st Century?
Packaging says a lot. It tells us about the product inside the packaging, the company who made the product inside the packaging, and the consumers buying the product inside the packaging. Packaging is important, so you need to get it right. Fortunately, at Creatik, getting it right is our specialty. We’re experts in creative graphic design, and we’ve helped countless companies with their packaging design in Australia. Not to mention the fact that we’re two-time ‘Driven By Design’ silver award winners. So, what makes for an excellent packaging design? We’re glad you asked.
Features of excellent packaging design
If you’re looking to create packaging that will grab your customers’ attention, there are a few things you need to get right with your design.
Your brand and the product purpose must be clear. If no one knows who you are, what you stand for, and what your product does, no one is going to buy it! As long as that information is glaringly obvious, you have creative license to play with design.
It needs to be visible. You need to make sure your packaging design will scream ‘pick me, pick me!’ from the shelf, so you need to choose shapes, colours, and fonts that catch the eye.
Keep it simple. To create brilliant packaging, you don’t necessarily have to reinvent the wheel. If you can create a clean, sleek, bold packaging that communicates everything you need it to, don’t try to over-complicate it.
Authenticity is key. There are hundreds of products out there competing for a consumer’s attention, so you’ll need to have an authentic edge if you hope to be seen. Really explore your brand and find the things that set you apart from everyone else in your industry.
Make sure it’s functional. If your packaging makes it hard to use or access the product, you need to rethink your design. We know that the opportunity to innovate is enticing, but sometimes, the best solution is the most practical, functional one.

It has been a pleasure to work with the team at Creatik, from first concept discussions through to final pack prints. The creative process has been smooth and the end result has far exceeded what we thought possible.
Kylie and the Creatik team successfully evolved our basic brand concept into a strong pack architecture that cuts through on shelf, is unique within our market and communicates brilliantly our desired position and message.

Man's Best
The Creatik team are not only highly skilled and professional, but also incredibly friendly and accommodating! We engaged Kylie and the team for a complete overhaul of our branding and could not be happier with the results.
From the outset, we were blown away by their thoughtful approach and meticulous attention to detail. They took the time to truly understand our vision, and their process helped us clarify and define our brand story in a way we hadn’t done before.
The result? A bold, fresh new logo and visual identity that we’re proud to put our name behind. The response from our customers has been overwhelmingly positive — from our new website to our packaging and everything in between, Creatik has delivered above and beyond our expectations.
They’ve given us a cohesive, professional brand that truly reflects who we are, where we’re from, and what we stand for. We’re so grateful for their creativity, collaboration, and genuine care throughout the entire journey.
