Project Overview This project developed a coordinated multi-product corporate gift box for a European business gift and retail customer. The set combined a soft PVC keychain, zinc alloy enamel badges, magnets/cards, a small cup-shaped accessory and retail packaging into one system, built around the theme “MOOD TO GO – TAKE YOUR MOOD, ANYWHERE YOU GO”.

Instead of placing several regular gifts into a box, the goal was a complete system covering theme, graphics, color, product mix, packaging and counter display. Reference gift box size: 120 x 160 x 30 mm.

Phase 1 – Theme Positioning and Product Mix

The project started from the emotion the gift box should convey – light, friendly and portable – rather than from individual products. A soft and energetic color system was set: coral red, cream white, yellow, mint green, light blue and light purple.

Each item works individually and together as one story.

Phase 2 – Visual System and Packaging Structure

Product graphics and packaging were developed together. Visual rules included unified rounded outlines and friendly expressions, controlled black outline weight so soft PVC, metal and printed parts look similar in visual weight, unified color relationships, and front/size/color zoning for each product.

Packaging engineering covered the 120 x 160 x 30 mm box die line, board thickness, folding and glue points, PET window sizing and anti-detachment structure, five product cavities with depth and clearance, scratch protection between keyring and products, inside-cover theme printing, and the counter display box with front height, back panel and restocking convenience.

Phase 3 – Multi-Material Process Planning

The core challenge: one gift box contains soft PVC, zinc alloy, magnetic or paper parts and packaging materials, and each material renders color, lines and details differently.

Soft PVC Keychain

Zinc Alloy Enamel Badges

Magnets, Cards and Cup Accessories

What This Project Demonstrates

This case shows how soft PVC, zinc alloy, printed components and retail packaging can be coordinated into a single multi-material gift system, from theme and graphics to material process planning, sample validation and counter-ready packaging.

Note: project name and theme details require confirmation before public use.

• Yellow star soft PVC keychain – the main hero product;
• Red ticket enamel badge – departure, travel and “Good Vibes”;
• Mint green suitcase enamel badge – reinforces the portable theme;
• Light purple cloud magnet/card – flat information and mood expression;
• Blue coffee cup accessory – connects to everyday life;
• Optional paper stickers – extra decoration and interaction.

• Star outline, edge thickness and black frame defined;
• Small-area glue/color zones for eyes, mouth and blush;
• Top hole and metal keyring connection strength checked;
• Softness adjusted for both touch and shape stability.

• Ticket and suitcase graphics converted to metal line art;
• Metal edges, recesses and enamel fill areas planned;
• Small text, rounded corners and details checked for producibility;
• Metal surface finish and back fixing structure unified.

• Print color matching across product types;
• Corner radius, surface protection and back structure;
• Small pattern and text clarity at actual size.
