Hierarchy in design is super important it informs the user on how to process information in a design and in what order, this reduces confusion and overwhelming the user.
Remember, as a wise designer once said:
"Say it once, say it with power, say it in the least amount of words."
What's your top tip for creating good hierarchy in design?

My top tip, is to gather a list of all the information needed to be included on your packaging, then rank them from most to least important.
Remember to balance the perspectives of the client and that of the user - often they don't fully align.
