Thank you for the help thus far.
The product is a very small one… It’s about 8" by 2" and it’s not a utility piece but more of a sculptural one. The beauty and emotion connected to it was more important than the function.
I presented several form factors and we all agree that the one attached is our favorite… with an added affordance such as a small strap for ease of pulling it open. It’s simple, unique, and there’s something pleasant about slowly revealing a product vs. just opening a flap and seeing the whole thing or just the top of it.
Let me know what you think, and any additional advice or suggestions or maybe even previous projects or examples that dealt with this issue would be great.
