 Wow! Sep 25, 2007
By C. James

I love this book. The templates are amazing, but easy enough to alter into your own design. Sometimes as a student you need a starting point. My last project turned out amazing and I believe I'll use this book as a reference for along time. I am even interested in other books by this author and Rotovision Publishing. The pictures are great and the design on the packaging a lone is worth it. This book is one of my best if not the best design books I have and more affordable. I honestly would have paid more for this book. My classmates are also looking into buying this book after they viewed my copy. I believe this is a must in a design students library. It gives you inspiration and shows you what good package design is, believe me there are some terrible books out there.

This book is a must have for any graphic artist. It's beautifully executed with tons of examples to garner inspiration from. Worth every penny.

Surpassed my expectations! Apr 21, 2009
By Allison Nold
"Private School Book Seller"
I normally like to look and flip through books before I purchase them, but after seeing it's rave reviews I decided to go ahead and purchase the book.
It not only met my expectations as far as providing me with digital templates (which come in .EPS), but it surpassed my expectations by providing me with really inspirational package design ideas. I LOVE this book.
The picture also does no justice to the quality of the book itself either. It is a very nice book. It is a necessity for anyone studying graphic design.

 Ineffective Templates Mar 04, 2011
By Aran Aran
I purchased this book and laser cut one of the templates, then tried to assemble it. I quickly realized that it was missing components. There were more tabs needed for the container to hold together that aren't in the templates. I added the needed tabs in Illustrator, recut it and tried to assemble it again. This time it held together, but the proportions were wrong and it didn't line up properly. So, I started looking at the other containers in the book. Several of them are missing tabs to keep them together. Other ones, if you compair the template to the packaging, they aren't the same. I think that they hired someone to reverse engineer the packaging into templates and they did a terrible job of it.
Also, there are lots of templates in the book that aren't that interesting or complicated. Designs that you definitely wouldn't need a book to tell you how to make.
