Tissue box packaging, most of the words, phrases and poems derived from the respondent survey. A total of four parts from the box, every section explains different context which are ‘Beauty' – anything in our surrounding can be view as an aesthetics outcome, ‘Daily Things’ – always be curious to know more, ‘Mundane’ – reflect every practice in our life and ‘Poems’ – respect every creation around us by exploring beyond our boundary. The message, notes and illustration showcase a distinctive flow which connects to one another topic. In a way, the style of every typography text represents boring and dull moments of every context, using ugliness and turning into a beautiful outcome. the order form is a way for college students to interact and have fun together based on the tissue box itself. Having them figure out the correct answer by finding it all around the box based on their understanding and interpretation of knowledge. Thus, challenges their mindset to explore deeper of the unseen aesthetics in another way. Apart from that, everyday order forms are usually boring, however when the outcome is viewed differently, students tend to appreciate the significant value of mundaneness.

To strengthen the survey result in a more cohesive way, an observation has been conducted for the past two weeks starting from 13 to 28 September. Through that, the designer noticed that the tissue boxes seemed to be placed at either the centre of the table or pushed to one side of the dining table. Some of it were even chucked at one corner, separated from any others tables. This shows that any objects or things that look mundane or unimpressive, cannot be interpreted by just looking at a glance then easily judged by our eyes before even visualizing properly.
