Mi Musician

Mi Bluetooth Headset Mini is packaging created for a compact sports headset. The headset shell is minimal and carries a single circular button. The packaging uses images of famous musicians, so the oval shell reads as a head and the button as an open mouth. The result suggests a singer or a conductor, and gives character to a simple product. A PET tray holds the headset and the controller at the front, while the wires remain hidden. A paper cover keeps the structure firm. The design aims to appeal to users between 18 and 29 years old.

Puli

Puli is a safety pill bottle with a double-cap closure. The outer cap is connected to the inner cap by tracks. In the initial position, the outer cap turns freely while the inner cap stays still. An adult can pull the outer cap so that protrusions and depressions engage the two caps, which then rotate together to open the bottle. Children find the outer cap hard to pull because the channel is narrow, so the contents stay protected. The flat body recalls a hip flask, hints at the pulling action and is easy to carry. Puli is made of HDPE by injection molding.
