The document discusses universal design for packaging. It provides examples of packaging that incorporates universal design principles such as being easy to use, understand and handle for all people regardless of ability. These principles include using intuitive symbols and colors, ensuring safe and comfortable use, and allowing enough space for access. The concepts can be realized through cooperation between government, designers and consumers.

3. Universal design refers to
broad-spectrum ideas meant to
produce buildings, products and
environments that are inherently
accessible to both people
without disabilities and people
with disabilities.
4. The term "universal
design" was coined by the
architect
“Ronald L. Mace” to describe
the concept of designing all
products and the built
environment to be aesthetic
and usable to the greatest
extent possible by everyone,
regardless of their age,
ability, or status in life.

function on its side soon after pouring hot water into the cup. This gives a
joyful surprise to consumers.
It is easy to hold and difficult to slip from hands. Very efficient for
shipping and storage as it is the same size as an
ordinary paper cup before use.

43. Designer: Patrick Sung
It seems a box is always too big or
small so designer “Patrick Sung”
came up with flat sheets of recyclable
corrugated cardboard called the
Universal Packaging System or
UPACKS.
The patterns make it easy to fold and
conform to almost any shape while
maintaining structural rigidity and
protecting the contents.
Love the idea of saving on packaging
but will this actually work?
I suspect each sheet would have to be
sufficiently padded; not too thick, not
too thin, but just right
44. Designer: Patrick Sung
Patrick Sung has designed Universal Packaging System
(UPACKS), a conceptual packaging system that forms to
whatever it is that you’re shipping.
45. Designer: Patrick Sung
Although it bends around your package, it is designed to be
sturdy and strong. The idea is that no one box fits all. Often
times, packaging is wasted to fill and pad empty space in
boxes.

54. Examples of applications
designed to solve the problem.
Designed to
have a border

59. The concept of Universal Design is open to all
sectors and all members can live together. Among
each other and accept
the diversity that exists. The fundamental belief that
every human being born into this world as well.
Society has an obligation to care for all members of
society have a normal life and be a part of the
community and the society have equal parity.
61. How to support
1. The state and local
organizations to maintain and
support the building
construction at various
levels. Pay attention and
realize that we must take care
of all members of society
equally.
62. How to support
2. Design professionals such
as architects, engineers,
designers and manufacturers
should be planned in detail,
which requires special skills
to create and design a
comprehensive public to
everyone.
63. How to support
3. Elderly, disabled or
limited people in use as
a service to help
suggestions. Critical to
improve consistency and
ease of use as well.
