I've decided to take my research slightly beyond design and packaging and look into sixties culture, icons of the time, fashion statements, music, movements etc.  all these things combined are what make the sixties such a memorable and iconic decade, easily arguable, one of the most significant in the last century.  I'm hoping getting a better insight into the lifestyle, culture and youth will help me develop and enable me to get a clearer ideas of a design direction.
