Piece of Psyche

Major: Graphic Design
Genre/Medium: Graphic Design, 3D Rendering
About the work: With Piece of Psyche, I wanted to create packaging for a hypothetical miniature model of the Psyche asteroid (created by artist Peter Rubin working with Psyche Principal Investigator Lindy Elkins-Tanton) that would be suitable for store shelves. My goal was to pack a lot of information about Psyche onto a small 5 inch box while retaining a modern, clean, and scientific aesthetic. The piece is digitally rendered to give viewers a sense of how the product would look in real life. I hoped to create something that I imagine could be seen in the educational toys and trinkets section of stores like Barnes and Noble that aim to educate both children and adults.
