The Design
About Ocean Blue Alkoholiese Drankverpakking
Ocean Blue is 'n verpakkingsontwerp vir 'n baijiu-sterk drank. Die bottel volg die verhoudings van die Fibonacci-spiraal, wat 'n gebalanseerde en dinamiese vorm gee wat maklik is om vas te hou en oop te maak. Die boonste gedeelte is afgewerk met goue vonke wat aan strandsand herinner, terwyl die onderste gedeelte in seeblou gekleur is. Kopperplaat-litografie, kat-oog-tegniek en reliëfwerk word gebruik om die oppervlaktekstuur te verbeter. Die buitedoos is gemaak van grys bordpapier met 'n wit bord-binnekant, 'n skuimkussing en 'n geweefde blister. 'n Gekodeerde stelsel koppel elke bottel, doos en kas om die produk teen namaaksels te help beskerm.

The shape of the bottle is flexible and smooth, following the principles of rational aesthetics. The golden rule of "Fibonacci spiral" is used to modify the ratio of the wine bottle to create a more balanced, elegant and dynamic super golden ratio of "point, line and surface", which is convenient for users to hold and open, and meets the ergonomics design.The industry's first copper plate lithography in designing baijiu bottles. Other techniques like cat-eye making and embossing are also adopted in the design to give the bottle a better texture. It will give customers a brand-new experience.

- Nearly 100 million bottles of the product are sold annually with its shoddy knock-offs rife in the market. This design is focused on anti-counterfeiting. The newly designed product includes a utility model patent for a composite buckle, which consists of an assembly part, a cross-linking part, and a connecting part. The buckle is made of plastic injection molding, with a hole set on its cross-linking part and a metal insert rod in the hole.
- Research
- In-depth market research through online questionnaires and offline seminars to analyse the memory points and shortcomings of Ocean Blue packaging. Memorable points such as the "Ocean Blue main visual symbol and its classic streamlined bottle" should be continued; But the box material is soft, the colour gradation is quite grey and dull, and the bottle label lacks details and texture.
The upgrade of Ocean Blue inherits the memory points, improves the deficiencies and combines modern and stylish design, to enhance the overall quality and grade. The focus is on upgrading the outer boxes, bottle labels, handbags and outer cases. - Inspiration
- The elements of sea and beach are highlighted in the design of the bottle. The upper part is painted with golden sparks, an association with beach sand. The sparks symbolize ideals. The lower part is colored in sea blue. It symbolizes fights for hope. The overall design demonstrates a "youth, vigor, optimism and ambition" image, demonstrating the consistency of quality and brand appeal.
