Design Details
- Unique Properties
- A representative brand of Shaoxing liquor, the visual form of the product Nverhong Guihua Lincang is inspired by the Tuanshan, which is a necessary thing in ancient times when a daughter grows up and gets married, it is used to hide her face and has the meaning of reunion and happiness, and carries the same good meaning as Nverhong liquor.
- Inspiration
- With its slim shape, Nverhong Guihua Lincang has a range of extensibility through different techniques, materials and colours. The body of the bottle is decorated with osmanthus elements, which are shown in the form of simple lines to add a feeling of modernity. The hexagonal cover, like a window of Chinese ancient architecture and also like a square fan, perfectly fits the elegant qualities of the product.
- Research
- The product imagery of Shaoxing liquor in the current market is almost obsolete and the consumer orientation is not accurate enough. Through market analysis combined with the needs to be communicated in the project, a new visual style of the product was reorganised and elements that fit the new image of Nverhong were extracted from the traditional Chinese elements.
- Challenge
- At the beginning of the project, we have experimented with various materials for the bottle, such as ceramic, glass and PVC, and finally chose ceramic as the material for the bottle according to the properties of Nverhong liquor.
- Realization and Technology
- In the form of celadon, Nverhong Guihua Lincang is mild and soft, and the box is made of recyclable paper for printing.
- Operation and Interaction
- The bottle has a slim appearance, with inspiration from the traditional Chinese women's collar that is introverted, and the core element is the Tuanshan used by the ancient Chinese women, which is harmonious and traditional without losing its national paradigm.
- Keywords
- Nverhong, Chinese Shaoxing liquor, Reunion and Beauty, Oriental flavour and Affinity.
