Morrisette Packaging’s Success: A Win at the 2024 Muse Design Awards

Morrisette Packaging is proud to announce that we won two Muse Design Awards for the two separate creative concept designs we submitted.

Effective packaging holds and protects your product, and it also tells a story. Custom packaging design gives consumers a peek at the quality, values, and unique product inside.

At Morrisette Packaging, we know your packaging is the first physical encounter customers have with your brand, so we commit to innovation and design excellence. We make sure the first impression is memorable and impactful.

Custom Packaging Design Projects

Morrisette Packaging submitted two conceptual packaging design for two brands: Calvin’s Craft and Hearn Pecan Farm.

Calvin’s Craft

Calvin’s Craft is reinventing the dog treat game by creating treats with human-grade ingredients and upcycled brewer’s grain. Because of their desire to focus on sustainability, the company is eliminating waste by reducing plastic use and packaging its treats in recyclable beer cans!

BONUS: 15% of proceeds go to dog rescue groups.

Calvin’s wanted to incorporate their brand and their ethos into the package design, so we had to get creative in our approach.

Calvin’s was looking for solutions that focus on upcycling and sustainability.

During the pandemic, many brands responded to rising ecom sales by enhancing their unboxing experience. Our design is approachable, sustainably right-sized, and promotes an exciting user interaction and introduction to the brand. The interior pop-top opening and inside print create a clean look and fun surprise as the design gives a nod to the brewing industry, without feeling like a beer brand.

We created a unique but familiar opening experience for the package. Incorporating a dog-shaped cutout for branding and a beer can tab to access the dog treats is the perfect combination of graphic and structural design.

Logo and Product Become the Package

Hearn Pecan is a third-generation family-owned farm based in North Carolina. Hearn Recan creates handcrafted specialty pecans. The family also designs, builds, and sells custom charcuterie boards.

At Morrisette Packaging, we possess a deep understanding of the intricacies involved in food packaging and the rigorous standards that must be adhered to within this domain. We are also the creative leaders in graphic and structural design, and we are confident in our ability to collaborate toward a solution.

We created an upscale retail package that represents their love for pecans and subtly highlights their charcuterie boards.

Design Comes to Life

Drawing upon the intricate designs of Chinoiserie patterns and the rustic appeal of charcuterie boards, our team skillfully developed an iconic package design. We shaped it to mirror the company’s logo. And we decided to blend the elegant look of Chinoiserie with unique shapes. The combination creates a package design that stands out and is immediately recognizable.

They wanted to stand out in the sea of boutique wedding market/specialty store gifts. The artwork draws inspiration from the Satomi hand block prints from traditional antique china sets, a style referenced during the discovery process with the customer. Which also plays into the generational messaging within the brand.

Robert McCabe — Morrisette Pacakging Graphic Designer

This project underscores our commitment to exceeding industry standards and infusing creativity and distinction into our packaging solutions. Our approach is rooted in collaboration and customization, ensuring we deliver value and efficiency in every project we undertake.

Lessons Learned in Custom Packaging Design

These two cases offer valuable lessons for those eager to incorporate Morrisette Packaging’s success strategies into their packaging.

1. Customization is Key

No two brands are the same, and their packaging shouldn’t be either. Our success in these custom packaging designs stemmed from our practice of tailoring packaging solutions that resonate with each brand’s narrative, creating unique and powerful custom touchpoints. Whether it’s a custom-designed box, branded packaging, or custom packaging tape, we can help you achieve the custom box look you want for your brand.

2. Design for The Experience


At Morrisette Packaging, we understand that packaging is an experience and not just a product. We reflect this approach in our winning custom packaging designs.

Brands should strive to create a memorable and engaging unboxing experience, and we excel in helping you achieve that goal.
