Setup boxes for events
Lightspeed Summit
Lightspeed worked with Packhelp to design a rigid box to show off glass trophies at an industry awards event. Gold hot stamping brought attention externally to the brand name, and a custom cut out was used to internally support the heavy glass trophy. A black background was used internally so that the viewer first sees the engraving on the glass, rather than the glass trophy itself.
