Today, Let Me See Your Package is featuring the work of designer Althea Aseoche. Hailing from Sydney, Australia, Althea is a talented young creative with original, inspiring ideas.
Her DVD and booklet box set, pictured below, takes a fun twist on the standard DVD digipak design. She also drew inspiration from the Lord of the Rings - Smeagol collectible DVD and and “Creating Gollum” book.
What I love about Althea’s design, is how much space there is for the full booklet in the package. The left and right flaps overlap to create a quite sizable box for the booklet. The packaging itself is adorned with characters from the film. Very little text is used, as the wonderful artwork speaks for the personality of the movie well enough on its own.

Mad Men DVD Package Shines
Filed Under DVD Packaging | Leave a Comment
Created by Matthew Weiner, the hit TV show “Mad Men” has a hit DVD package to go along with it. This shiny DVD box is designed to mimic the zippo style cigarette lighters used by the chain smoking characters on screen.
Produced by Lionsgate Television, the DVD set is the kind of purchase where you savor the packaging just as much as the content.
I’m such a sucker for novelty like this. Though I have to admit, though I care enough about media packaging to write a blog on the subject, just as eye catching as the DVD set is the Betty Draper character.
