Unpacking Ceramic History in Asia and Europe: Contribution to New Reusable Packaging Design
Abstrak
Written within the scope of a PhD research project that is being developed at the University of Aveiro (Portugal), this article is based on research for design, through design. The goal is to develop a proposal for a non-disposable modular packaging system for ceramic products, which can organize interior spaces, thus reducing waste. Its development relies on the partnerships of two companies in the distinctive areas of ceramics and textiles, namely: Grestel-Produtos Cerâmicos S.A. and Tintex Textiles S.A. A historical study of ceramic ware packaging was developed through a documental analysis of relevant moments of long-distance transport history, before disposable consumption habits. By gathering and analysing information that provides significant contributions based on historical facts, this study targeting a contemporary solution for a reusable packaging project. A proposal for a modular packaging system has already been designed and validated by the partner companies.
