    Fernando Arendar, founder of Nitid Studio, specializes in science-based packaging design. He uses studies and research to understand the psychological and sensory factors that influence consumer behavior. In his LinkedIn posts, he presents side-by-side images and asks viewers to choose based on how they feel. The choices often reveal the impact of design elements like patterns, fonts, and shapes on perception. For example, round shapes are associated with sweetness, while angular shapes can be seen as dangerous. Designers should consider the desired perception of a product and understand their target audience to create effective packaging. The conversation explores the importance of clear and effective packaging design. It emphasizes the need to prioritize key attributes and convey them in a way that is easy for consumers to understand. The discussion touches on the use of color to communicate flavors and the challenges of designing for different cultural associations. It also highlights common packaging design mistakes, such as including too much information and trying to be trendy or original. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the role of awards in the industry and the importance of designing packaging that sells products.

Evelio and Jesse Goldman explore the vast yet intricate world of consumer packaged goods, as presented through the lens of Snackshots’ popular newsletter, which showcases the latest trends in CPG and food packaging. The episode emphasizes the importance and impact of packaging design on consumer choices, touching on the concept of 'decision fatigue' caused by the overwhelming array of visually stunning products on the shelf. By examining various products and their packaging, Jesse and Evelio discuss the balance between aesthetics and practicality, the role of branding in consumer trust, and how the saturation of creative designs may eventually influence shopping behaviors. The conversation also delves into the potential mistrust towards highly designed products and the cultural implications of design-heavy consumer goods. Key Takeaways: The overabundance of eye-catching packaging designs can lead to decision fatigue among consumers. The role of branding extends beyond the product, embedding into lifestyle and ethical choices which may weigh heavily on consumer decisions. Well-designed packaging can at times create skepticism about the product's authenticity and quality. Established brands like Kellogg's provide a sense of reliability and trust, easily recognized amidst the crowded shelves. The effectiveness of packaging lies in creating an instant connection with the consumer, much like how videos must capture attention within the first few seconds.

Very enjoyable and information packed

I finally got into a packaging career after starting my job search right at the start of covid shutdown. It was hard to stay up to date with all the new packaging developments while I was working in other industries. I found your podcast and I've been catching up during my long commute, and I wanted to thank you for it.

Thanks to your podcast, I don't feel as out of the packaging loop as before. Your knowledge base and that of your guests is genuinely impressive, as is your ability to communicate that knowledge. We need more people like you in this industry.

I've learned something new with each episode!

Evelio really has a talent for attracting the best in the industry when it comes to the knowledge they're willing to share. I've been listening to his podcast for a couple of months, and I can honestly say that each conversation I listen to turns into 4 more open tabs in my browser of topics, trends, or new ventures I've never considered before. Evelio is indirectly opening doors of opportunity for the company I work for, while also expanding my knowledge of label and product design every time I listen. Package designers need to be tuning in. Thanks, Evelio, and keep up the great work that you do!
