Design Objectives
Develop a stylish and playful to evoke the silly energy of dogs!
Collaborate with ITP students to create die-lines and print professional packaging mockups.
Translate our design identity via an interactive mobile app, studio photography, and promotional video.
We set out to replace the plastic-heavy pet product packaging a sustainable, resealable, easy-to-ship paperboard.

PRODUCT IDEATION
The secondary product
Our secondary product is a dog fashion app that offers a size-up subscription for harnesses and clothing, ensuring a perfect fit as dogs grow. Inspired by baby brands, owners can return outgrown items for discounts, promoting sustainability and longevity. The app connects with our DNA test results, recommending breed-specific apparel like no-pull harnesses for dogs prone to respiratory issues or thunderstorm coats for anxious breeds. This creates a seamless experience where science informs style, blending functionality with fashion.
