Defining the Ideal Packaging Modular Design
By Dividella
The essence of modular design is to create an overall architecture where a complex product or system is broken down into discrete component modules or ‘skids’ that perform specific roles and that can be integrated at will into the overall structure.
Modularity occurs in nature, with different species sharing organs and body parts such as eyes, hearts, lungs and livers that work in essentially similar ways and perform essentially identical functions.
