About Underforest: Select Primary Function: Brend Kimliyi

Underforest: Select Tayvanda meşəaltı iqtisadiyyatın məhsulları üçün yaradılmış brend kimliyidir. Loqo meşə mənasını verən Çin heroqlifini təmsil edən və meşəliklə birgə mövcudluq ideyasını ifadə edən dörd meşə-yaşıl üçbucaqdan ibarətdir. Meşə-yaşıl rəng təbii ehtiyatları, mat qızıl rəng isə iqtisadi potensialı təmsil edir. Qablaşdırmada ağaca yaxın tekstura üçün simili kağız istifadə olunur və mat qızıl isti folqa möhürləməsi ilə tamamlanır. Təsvir inteqrasiyası və ortaq qablaşdırma standartları material xərclərini azaldır və yerli meşə təsərrüfatçılarına dəstək olur.

Unique Properties: The project, in hand with the government, built the leading brand of "Underforest: Select" for the under-forest economy. Through image integration and packaging specification, designers reduce material costs without compromising quality, strengthen the brand identity and raise the values for their products.
Dimensions & Packaging: UNDERFOREST:SELECT GIFT BOX: 270mm x 80mm x 185mm
Tags: #Taiwan #ChiayiForestDistrictOfficeForestryBureau #UNDERFOREST:SELECT #BrandIdentity #UnderForestEconomy #CoexistwithForests #SocialImpact #Sustainableconsumptionawareness
Production Technology: The logo consists of four forest-green triangles, representing the Chinese Character "林 (Forest)." The logo conveys the idea of coexistence with the forests. The packaging uses simili paper to create the sense of touching the woods and is decorated with hot foil stamping in matte gold, which represents "the economic potential in the forests."
Design Challenge: The concept of "UNDERFOREST:SELECT" integrates three conditions:

A. Be eco-friendly and coexist with the forests
B. Revitalize the agricultural economy
C. Raise the green awareness among the consumers through the brand identity and visual design and change their consumption habits
Research: The government started promoting the "Under-forest Economy" because of the favorable climate conditions and the diversity of honey plants in the forest. After thinning, the woods were cut into logs with high carbohydrate content and high lignin. The foresters comply with the rule of not using any pesticides or chemicals in the process of planting. They develop natural and safe under-forest products such as "forest honey," "log-based mushrooms," and "Taiwan jewel orchid." Through "UNDERFOREST:SELECT," the foresters began to understand the idea of branding concept and marketing. The cooperation between the government, the foresters, and the brand "UNDERFOREST:SELECT" promotes the idea that productive economic activity and ecology can co-exist.
Inspiration: For decades, Taiwan's government forbade the logging of primeval forests and encouraged afforestation. However, it is difficult for forest owners to maintain their livelihood through forest management. Thus, in 2020, the Forestry Bureau launched the policy of "Under Forest Economy," with the coexistence of forest ecologies, to let foresters cultivate plants and livestock to increase their income. In 2020, we united with the government around the same goal and put out the brand "UNDERFOREST: SELECT," being of assistance to local foresters in South Taiwan.
Project Duration: The project started in Taichung, Taiwan in October 2020 and ended in Chiayi, Taiwan, in January 2021. The "UNDERFOREST:SELECT" brand launch event was held in Chiayi Chukou Nature Center on January 22, 2021.
Operation Flow: Our branding colors are forest-green and matte gold. Forest-green portrays the abundant natural resources in the woods, and the matte gold represents the economic potential of the under-forest economy. We shape the brand identity with layers of woods and the silhouettes of the under-forest economy's products as an epitome of the sustainable cycle of life between forest ecologies and economy.
