# Minimal Strappy CD Cases The Homenatge a la Cinta Meravella jewel case is Extremely Sparse By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2014-04-11 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jewel-case References: [thedieline](http://www.thedieline.com/blog/2014/4/4/homenatge-a-la-cinta-meravella) & [annapigem](http://www.annapigem.com/) This simple jewel case for the Homenatge a la Cinta Meravella album has a lot less packaging than the average CD. In place of a [plastic cover](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/native-union-reclassic-case), Anna Pigem designed a [minimal way to present the CD](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-paron-iii) with a system of four bands and notches to hold the disc in place. The Homenatge a la Cinta Meravella CD is full of traditional songs from Catalunya and Banyoles and the leisurely mood of the music is definitely reflected in this [laid-back packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/redesigned-retail-packaging). Since the case is missing a covered front and there isn't a lot of surface area for additional information, the back of the CD case has a few sparing lines of text on it. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 62% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Minimal Packaging:** The trend of minimal packaging presents opportunities for companies to reduce waste and create eco-friendly product designs. - **Functional Design:** Functional designs, such as the Homenatge a la Cinta Meravella CD case, offer opportunities for companies to create innovative and convenient solutions for packaging and presentation. - **Streamlined Aesthetics:** The trend towards streamlined aesthetics in product design can inspire companies to create sleek and minimalist packaging solutions that appeal to consumers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Music:** The music industry can explore innovative packaging options that reflect the mood and essence of the music, while also reducing waste and materials used. - **Eco-friendly:** The eco-friendly industry can seize the opportunity to develop sustainable packaging solutions that minimize waste and promote environmental consciousness. - **Design:** The design industry can leverage the trend of functional and minimalist packaging to create innovative and visually appealing solutions for various products and sectors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Transparent Audio CD Players](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clearframe-cd.md) - [Minimalist Supply Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/optimal-home.md) - [Refreshed Modern CD Players](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cd-player-concept.md) - [Label-Less Wine Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crate-by-fourth-wave-wines.md) - [Aesthetically Pleasing CD Players](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-cd-player.md) - [Baroque-Style Earbud Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-case.md) - [CD-Centric Apartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apartment-nube.md) - [Minimalist Computer Chassis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/computer-2.md) - [Millennium-Inspired CD Players](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orion-cd-player.md)
