The vintage look is achieved by the chosen colors and the Art Deco/Steampunk linework.
Automata Packaging
To Introduce Modelshop’s line of wooden automata into the US market, we must first consider our product’s place in this market. We know the strengths of our product, such as excellence of design, precision craftsmanship, exciting functionality, and overall high quality, but is this enough?
The competitive nature of the US marketplace is astonishing. To be uccessful here takes more than a good product. The savvy marketer knows even the best product must be packaged and erchandized expertly.
The packaging must first be eye–catching enough to draw the customer toward it. Holding the package should result in a feeling of quality.

As the product itself is beautiful while being functional, so too is the packaging.
While the product itself is fun and engaging, the packaging takes itself seriously — a perfect foil for the product.
The packaging’s retro nature suggests it has existed for many years — and will live on for many more.
This packaging solution appears to be from another time— which could also be true of the product.
The '50's are known as the “Plastic Age,” — not represenative of our natural product, so I went further back in time to the ‘30s and the inuence of Art Deco, with its stylized, geometric designs.
