Laundry Detergent Package Design for St. Louis Area Manufacturer

Posted on April 27, 2015

Stellar Manufacturing recently contracted Visual Lure to spruce up a couple labels for their new line of laundry detergent. The store buyer, the person in charge of selecting what products will go in a store, turned down the initial labels that were designed by another graphic designer. Stellar came to us to develop package designs that the buyer wouldn’t say no to, and we did just that. With only one minor round of revisions, the buyer accepted our designs.

The moral of this story is to hire and invest in a good package designer the first time around. Subpar package design is one of the main reasons products get turned down by buyers. Having visual pleasing, eye-catching packaging is critical in the success of a product. With all the other products on the shelf, yours needs to stand out, look professionally designed and give buyers an immediate sense of trust.

Below are the before and afters of the first two scents in Stellar’s new line of Bright House Laundry Detergents, Fresh Scent and Lavender.

Package/Label Design for a St. Louis Metro East Glass Cleaner Manufacturer

Posted on November 6, 2014

Visual Lure recently completed the following label/package design for Bright House Glass Cleaner. Bright House is a manufacturer of household cleaning products and is located in the St. Louis Metro East in Columbia, Illinois. Visual Lure has also designed packaging for other Bright House products including their dishwashing soap. Click here to view that design project.

We feel that the new packaging looks “fresh and clean” which are the characteristics you want a glass cleaner to have. We were able to achieve this look by using a subtle “shiny/gleaming” background, a bright green and blue color palette along with clean and modern typography. The fire engine red “new burst” will also help the label jump off the shelf and attract eye-balls which is what good package design does.

St. Louis Packaging Design for Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaners

Posted on June 13, 2013

A St. Louis Metro East manufacturer of automatic toilet bowl cleaners recently contracted Visual Lure to design its new packaging. They haven’t decided on whether to use the name Bright Bowl or Brite Bowl, and they wanted to have packaging design options for both.ย  However, once they reviewed our initial design options, they may utilize both.

Of their two main competitors, one uses blue packaging and the other uses green. They wanted their product to look completely different so they didn’t want to uses either of those colors. They also wanted their product to appeal to their main target audience, women, so we decided to use the color purple.ย  Color studies and research have shown that women like it.

Below are the two packaging design options we provided.ย  Check back soon to see if they use one design or both.
