Brief Explanation

We needed to get young people to practice safe sex and protect themselves from sexually transmitted diseases, so we needed them to purchase condoms but we needed to protect them from the embarrassment of buying them. From here the idea of the newly designed packaging camouflaged the product and made it look like candy, snack and crisp packs therefore making it easier for youngsters to buy. Young consumers reacted immediately, finding the innovative packaging attractive and fun and this inspired them to buy the product.
