This type of development does not have a particular name. It is basically a box with the front being shorter than the back. It is ideal for a container that holds leaflets that can be removed one at a time, with ease.

QUESTION: Design and make a point of sale ‘box’ that will hold leaflets. The leaflets promote recycling and so you must consider a design for the external surfaces that reflects this theme.

You must produce two colour rendered sketches of the box and one final development. Before you start sketching ideas list all the important factors you must keep in mind when designing the box.
