When a painter creates a work, he is free to choose the object of depiction and emphasizes the individuality of freedom according to his personal preferences. However, in a product packaging design that promotes the promotion of goods and entertains customers, the designers are much more limited than painting. The use of color must avoid arbitrariness. While respecting the objects to be promoted and beautified, attention must be paid to meeting the requirements of ordinary people for their colors and customs.

In daily necessities and clothing, rejuvenation gives a sense of warmth and coldness. Such as orange red makes people feel jealous and warm; blue, purple, green makes people feel cool. Silent, green gives people a sense of youthfulness, freshness, and cleanliness; blackness often gives people a feeling of mourning and gloomy, but it is one of the important questions in the use of color in packaging design. Especially in recent years, the role of black and white in packaging design has become more and more significant. The use of color types is not necessarily a lot, and the stacking effect of a variety of colors is not necessarily good. The generally experienced designers have made it possible to take advantage of money, such as gold. Japan's specjalage whisky's funding design, with white as the bottom, decorated with purple, red two colors, with less color, hue and light and dark contrast effect is strong, prominent, giving a clean, clean feeling.
In short, the success of commodity packaging design, the use of its color is an extremely important determinant. The successful design of commodity packaging is a natural science for designers.
