About the Collaboration
This project aims to expand the possibilities of new designs through the free ideas of students. Students from OCA Osaka Design & Technology College’s Graphic Design program conceived the body colors and package designs for the collaboration models as part of their coursework. Each student developed design proposals based on their own concepts, and the selected designs were then commercialized through a competition format.
Product Features
Collaboration with Design Students
Students from the Graphic Design program at OCA Osaka Design & Technology College proposed package designs and body colors through a competition, with three works selected for commercialization. These special designs embody the themes of the earphones’ “gentle comfort” and “sense of liberation without pressure,” incorporating each student’s unique vision and passion.
Package Designs Expressing Individual Worldviews
Each student’s unique sensibility is expressed through the package designs. The students repeatedly refined their creations, focusing on the desire to evoke specific feelings in those who hold the product. The result is special packaging imbued with the individuality and messages of each student.
