Jeep Voyager

A new skin care kit for men.

Most of the time, skin-care products are thought to be solely purposed for beauty. However, individuals who are exposed to the sun and dirt often are prone to get risks of skin cancer and other skin problems. Construction workers, hikers, and active men alike are more susceptible to these factors. It becomes a challenge for these individuals in the future with the risk at hand.

The Adler Planetarium is America’s first planetarium based in Chicago, founded in 1930 by Max Adler. There was a time when institutions targeted their marketing towards kids only. The project is a rebrand case study to re-shift the audience to be more accessible and inclusive to adults — to tourists and the rest of the community in Chicago. The rebrand of the planetarium focuses on connecting individuals to experiences, to each other, and to their inner curiosity for space. To inspire our child-like spirit and to spark meaningful conversations to our next generation.

Packaging

Project Brief

The project deliverable expectation was to create a conceptual packaging kit that consists of 3–5 components. The Jeep Voyager Skin Care kit is a conceptual portable introductory kit for the everyday active men. It is targeted towards men in their mid-20s and above who go outdoors often like hiking, rock–climbing, camping, and off-roading trips. The kit includes 3 products of a face cleanser, a moisturizer, and a container with miniature bars of hand soap for the journey ahead. Jeep Voyager provides a simple skin care routine for men who don't know where to start. This kit will be displayed at car dealerships and will be offered as gifts exclusively by Jeep.

The Problem

Individuals who are exposed to the sun and dirt often are prone to get risks of skin cancer and other skin problems. Active men who go outdoors often and construction workers are prone to getting exposed more than the average. It becomes a hidden challenge for these individuals and should be addressed.

Opportunity

After identifying the main challenge, I decided to put an interesting twist to a brand that have never produced a skin care kit before. Jeep targets the everyday active outdoor men. There was an opportunity to capture the same target audience by creating a packaging that is iconic to the Jeep brand.

The Process

This was my first packaging project during my time at ArtCenter College of Design. I've always enjoyed building with my hands and brainstorming in a 3D space. So, I decided to take this project further by learning CAD programs and working with my product and transportation peers to bring my ideas to life. It all started with the 100+ sketches of potential forms and ideating different ways to be interacted with. The external forms of the kit was modeled with Solidworks and carved out with a CNC machine on a pink foam. Throughout the process, I was told by a lot of students that 'it won't work'. That the machine can't cut such a delicate small form and spray painting two layers on my form would not work. But, I was persistent to try all the possibilities before concluding that it won't work.
