Realistic Building Block Giftware

The LEGO Gift Box is a Gift In and Of Itself

— January 15, 2014 — Art & Design
Imgur.com user Pastlightspeed has created a LEGO gift box that is big enough to hold actual presents.

Complete with an actual LEGO bow and LEGO ribbon, this building block gift box features a removable top and smooth hollow interior surface where you can place your gift. Pastlightspeed was even kind enough to place the LEGO gift box next to a previously built LEGO banana (an earlier LEGO construction matching the size of an actual banana) to show its scale.

The best part of the LEGO gift box is that you can use it again and again every Christmas, assuming of course the person Pastlightspeed gives it to doesn’t carelessly open it, or worse yet, think that they can actually keep the box.
Trend Themes
1. Reusable Gift Packaging - Creating gift boxes that can be reused as functional items beyond packaging presents provides opportunities for sustainable and innovative designs.
2. Customizable Premium Packaging - Incorporating customization into premium packaging designs, such as adding removable parts or unique designs, creates memorable and personalized experiences for customers.
3. Novelty Gift Packaging - Developing innovative and fun gift packaging options, such as the LEGO gift box, can offer businesses a competitive edge and increase brand recognition.
Industry Implications
1. Retail - Retail businesses can differentiate themselves from competitors by creating sustainable and unique gift packaging options that align with their brand values.
2. E-commerce - E-commerce businesses can enhance the overall customer experience by creating customizable and reusable packaging options that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
3. Corporate Gifting - Incorporating creative and innovative gift packaging, such as the LEGO gift box, offers corporate gifting companies an opportunity to provide a memorable gifting experience for clients and employees.
