Packaging
Packing designs
I noticed a lot of the bee boxes that were not packaged or had really unattractive packaging designs with ugly photos and garish typography. HoweverI found these examples of flat pack bird boxes which had greater attention to design on the their packaging. I would like to design an envelope/packet to put the final design in to make it part of the product.
The roof overlaps the sides and the front which protects the block from moisture.
Urban beehive that would allow anyone to become an amateur beekeeper– even those who live in apartments with no backyards.
