About West Lake Beer Packaging per birra
West Lake Beer è un progetto di packaging per birra in bottiglia. Il design si ispira ai paesaggi del Lago dell'Ovest di Hangzhou, reinterpretando il Ponte Spezzato e i Tre Stagni che Riflettono la Luna come simboli visivi astratti. La tipografia unisce la scrittura sigillare allo stile calligrafico della dinastia Song. La scatola esterna è rifinita con stampa a caldo in oro e pellicola opaca, per una qualità tattile morbida e vellutata. La bottiglia è realizzata in vetro verde di alta qualità, che limita il passaggio dei raggi ultravioletti e contribuisce a preservare il gusto della birra. Le torri di pietra raffigurate sulla bottiglia indicano l'intensità di ciascun aroma.

- Production Technology
- The exterior box is crafted with a gold stamping process, enhancing its visual appeal and offering consumers a unique tactile experience.
The bottle is constructed from high quality green glass, providing excellent optical protection that minimizes the potential for UV light to interact with beer compounds and cause odors or oxidation, preserving the freshness and flavor profile of the beer. - Design Challenge
- The challenge is capturing the cultural essence of West Lake. The West Lake Beer font mimics the graceful arch of the Broken Bridge, and some strokes resemble the soaring eaves of the mid lake pavilion, integrating West Lake aesthetics and seal script.
The label is inspired by Song Dynasty calligraphy, from right to left, with a negative silhouette of Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon. Consumers can feel the profound Chinese aesthetics and the ethereal beauty of West Lake while enjoying the beer. - Research
- Through extensive research and excavation of West Lake culture, the design team has effectively translated the natural beauty and humanistic landscape of West Lake into visual elements incorporated into the beer packaging design. This process not only elevates the cultural and artistic value of the product but also serves as a valuable reference for the modernization and evolution of traditional beer brands.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the renowned natural and cultural landscape, West Lake in Hangzhou, the design elevates the cultural added value of the beer through the utilization of colors, patterns, and materials. The design team selected the West Lake sceneries, the Broken Bridge and Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon, and interpreted them into visual symbols abstractly and artistically. They were blended into every facet of the packaging, making it a medium for expressing the cultural connotation of West Lake.
- Project Duration
- The project was designed and developed in December 2022 in Beijing.
- Operation Flow
- The Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon stone towers are designed to represent the varying intensities of the beer flavors on the bottle. This visual arrangement enhances the sensory exploration of taste and promotes social interaction among consumers during the savoring. The outer box is made of matte film with great texture, which offers a delicate tactile experience with jade like warmness and smoothness, further reflecting the cultural richness and high quality of the West Lake Beer brand.
