- Production Technology
- We adopt glass spraying to design the bottle body as blue transparent bottle. We combine the Chinese idiom "all things are exquisite" to design the bottle body into eight sides to symbolize its pure taste. Combined with the Chinese idiom "famous all over the world", the pattern on the top of the bottle is as four layers, just like the waves, to symbolize its perfection and uniqueness. The bottle using bronzing technology, the outer packing using black special paper bronzing technology. We look at products in three dimensions and make "tradition" the new attraction.
- Design Challenge
- When the bottle is demould, it is a little difficult, but it can be improved. There are a lot of attempts on the matching of outer box technology, and no satisfactory effect is achieved. However, I believe that the design originates from life, and we should make the traditional elements fashionable, so that it has different visual experience. However, when it comes to mass production, we need to compromise.
