Each chapter concludes with photographs and net drawings oF 6-10 creative examples of packaging designs made using the principles outlined in the preceding chapter.Structural packaging gives the reader an understanding of the underlying principles of packaging construction and the technical knowledge and confidence to develop a greater number of their own unusual and innovative designs than any comparable book.
