mosquito coil packaging by aakanksha rajhans from india
designer's own words:
Mosquito coils are extensively used in India. The users face problems while collecting the ash , sometimes the spaces are such that keeping a coil horizontally creates obstructions in the room for moment. The absence of a match box or lighter renders the coils useless. The aim of the project was to give a complete package to the users and make it fun and easy to use.
The pack has a unique stand which collects the ash .The stand can be placed horizontally or hooked vertically for better use. If the stand is placed horizontally the ash falls in a certain pattern hiding the mosquito graphic on the tray. It is a fun indicator to show the reduction in the number of mosquitoes. The matchstick set inside makes it a complete pack. The match stick can be struck on the outer side of the box.
You can use this box at home and need not be worried about the ash or carry it outdoors.
