About Snow Zero Packaging
Snow Zero is a packaging design for a low-alcohol, low-calorie hard sparkling water. The name Zero refers to midnight, seen as both an ending and a beginning. The infinity symbol on the package expresses the idea of continuation. The figure 0 is rendered with a three-dimensional liquid metal effect to suggest a light and refreshing taste. Illustrations on the bottles draw on pioneer visual art styles for a futuristic look. The water drop shaped bottles can be joined mouth to mouth, so two bottles form a new infinity symbol. Aluminum cans and glass bottles are used.

- Design Challenge
- The challenge of the project laid in how to stand out in the crowded market of essentially identical products and to catch eyes of consumers in the consumption scenarios. For this end, the package design applies the font effect of 3D liquid metal on the figure 0 to visually convey the low calorie and refreshing taste of the product, quite striking and impressive. The illustrations of various art styles are also adopted to reinterpret what the ZERO can be, exuding a coherent vibe of futurism.
- Research
- In light of the preferences of the z generation, the design team labeled the hard sparkling water as ZERO to denote the infinite enjoyment it brings and the midnight for people to indulge in revelry. The ZERO is expected to create a mental habitat for the z generation to take their stress and disguise off and to show their true personalities in the leisure moments.
- Inspiration
- The hard sparkling water is subtly named as Zero to symbolize the midnight, a time to enjoy revelry and welcome a new day. The continuation Zero implies is encapsulated and visualized by the infinity symbol, to connote the endless enjoyment offered by the hard sparkling water. For stronger aesthetic appeal, the figure 0 takes on the font effect of 3D liquid metal, which exudes a striking futuristic style to make the package design match the consumption scenariosmore closely.
- Project Duration
- The design and development of ZERO started in Beijing, in September 2021. It will be introduced to the market in China, in August 2023.
- Operation Flow
- With the uniquely designed water drop shape, any two bottles can be connected mouth to mouth to form a new infinity symbol. This subtle shape design boasts much playfulness, and offers every consumer a new approach to socializing and interacting with others.
