Card, Message

Production Technology

Based on the idea that the production method of plastic cards in general is focused on layering colors on a thin plate, different colors and materials were layered to show the three-dimensional effect on the surface of the card. By utilizing colors with the sense of space, it was possible to finish the surface of the illustration with strong color arrangements luxuriously.

Design Challenge

Choosing a message appealing to the generations in their 20s and 30s was a real challenge. Studying messages was not difficult at all. However, selecting a message that would meet the public standards as a commercial gift card and applying a design that would metaphorically express the message was an important research subject and starting point of the project.

Project Duration

May ~ December, 2018, All brand stores of CJ Group in Korea

Operation Flow

Positioning focused on the main consumer segments had a positive impact on the overall consumer who had a preference for the target group, besides the target group. By delivering the message they want to share or possessing the message they want to hear with the message card, consumers puts their own stories on the message card and owned them.

Research

We selected as many consumers as possible and collected their messages that they would like to hear or want to deliver, both on and offline. Based on the researched messages, we studied consumer preference as well as design suitability, and tried a test design for each message. Internal evaluation groups were used to identify preferences of test designs. As the project decided to accommodate the public's preferences as well as the absolute standards of design, it was judged and carried out by the public's standards in all aspects of message selection and design progress. The project for sympathy was able to be spread as the cultural phenomena by winning various public response thanks to the way of project progress.

Inspiration

The project of gift cards, that are commonly used by the generations in their 20s and 30s, was inspired by their culture and lifestyle. Not only did the gift cards have their own stories and messages, but the motives were also based that the level of empathy would be the standard of generation. Messages of encouragement, praise, comfort, and congratulation in their own terms had resonated with the generations in their 20s and 30s.
