need your gut reaction: for our crowdfunding supporter box, should we go brown cardboard (human diy) or black coated (premium gift feel)? i can’t decide, what feels right to you?

The black definitely signals "premium" better. Plus it's just a change up from the usual, which I think people naturally get excited about.

Black coated box feels like a major level-up!

Brown cardboard feels more honest and human. Black coated looks nice, but brown fits the DIY, supporter-first vibe better.

yes, you are right

Hmmm another intereting point of view there but, what if you try considering maybe making the people receiving such gift to feel special in a way.
Rufai's avatar
at the end of the day though i think it still depends on how you want the brand to be percieved though.

I think brown would work better

The brown cardboard is too common, Try black coated, it feels premium and different.
Anton's avatar
yes, being different is very important in this case
Rufai's avatar
Exactly! same feeling here.

The black coated looks really good! It also stands out as opposed to the regular brown

The black has a more premium feel but you might want to change the background to a color that creates contrast with the box. You want to capture your viewers attention and direct their focus immediately. Right now, the brown box does that because of the contrast it has with its background even though the black box looks better.
