About Hangzhou Scenery Mineral Water Packaging
Hangzhou Scenery is a mineral water packaging series based on a glass bottle. The bottle measures 60 mm in width, 60 mm in depth and 210 mm in height, and holds 318 millilitres. The slim shape supports a comfortable grip. Glass is used instead of plastic, so the bottle can be reused and waste is reduced. The labels are produced by heat transfer printing and cover a large area of the glass. The illustrations show landmarks of Hangzhou, China, among them the West Lake, the Grand Canal and the Xixi National Wetland Park.

- Research
- In Hangzhou, China, we immersed ourselves in extensive consumer interviews, understanding their perspectives on bottled water and listening to their consumption needs. Concurrently, we delved into the city's cultural tapestry, conducting in-depth research on iconic landmarks, historical narratives, and local legends. To ensure our packaging design stands out in the market, we meticulously studied both domestic and international water packaging trends. Finally, combining modern and international aesthetics with traditional Chinese cultural elements, we created this packaging series.
- Inspiration
- Hang Water is a homegrown brand from Hangzhou, China, aspiring to be the city's ambassador. This series of packaging draws inspiration from iconic landmarks of Hangzhou like the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City, Grand Canal, West Lake, Xixi National Wetland Park, and Asian Games venues. Through a collection of vibrant illustrations, we aim to dynamically showcase Hangzhou's urban features, covering its history, culture, environment, ecology, and modernity.
