About Fountain Of Fortune Nuwejaar-verpakking

Hierdie geskenkstel bevat 'n geïllustreerde verpakking met twee blikkies Voorspoedwater en 'n interaktiewe mobiele rooikoevert. Die ontwerp herinterpreteer tradisionele geskenkgee deur visuele storievertelling, simboliese elemente en geïntegreerde digitale interaksie. Deur klassieke Nuwejaar-beelde met eietydse interaktiewe kenmerke te kombineer, bied die projek beide fisiese en digitale komponente binne 'n verenigde feestelike ervaring aan. Die integrasie van tradisionele simbole en digitale interaksie weerspieël 'n benadering wat gevestigde kulturele praktyke met hedendaagse kommunikasiemetodes verbind.

Production Technology
The packaging utilizes rigid cardboard wrapped in soft-touch red matte paper with precision foil stamping and spot UV finishing. The interior is lined with gold foil for enhanced visual impact. The twin beverage cans are made of aluminum and feature full-body printing for maximum brand visibility.
Design Challenge
A primary challenge was achieving harmony between physical tactility and digital engagement. The team needed to align symbolic elements, such as snakes, gold, water, and the color red, with DAWHO's minimalist visual identity. The packaging had to serve both as a culturally resonant ceremonial object and as a seamless gateway to the mobile interaction experience.
Research
This project explores how modern banking can merge with traditional gifting customs. Based on research into Taiwanese Lunar New Year practices and the symbolism of red envelopes, the design creates a hybrid experience that connects analog rituals with digital interaction, maintaining emotional value while embracing technology.
Inspiration
Inspired by Chinese folklore about golden snakes bringing wealth and the custom of drinking fortune water for prosperity, this design reinterprets traditional beliefs through a contemporary perspective. The illustration of the Fountain of Fortune and the integration of a digital red envelope experience present ancient cultural elements in an accessible, playful, and meaningful format for modern audiences.
Project Duration
Design Period: July 2024-October 2024

Production and Launch: November 2024

Location: Taipei, Taiwan
Operation Flow
Upon opening the box, users find two cans of "Prosperity Water," representing good fortune. The experience continues digitally through DAWHO’s mobile app, where users send New Year blessings via a red envelope event. Although the product lacks embedded technology, it is central to the brand’s holiday campaign.
