About Shede Spirit Oriental Wisdom Упакоўка для моцных напояў

Shede Spirit Oriental Wisdom — гэта падарункавая скрынка, створаная для кітайскага моцнага напою. Дызайн звязвае брэнд з вэйці, настольнай гульнёй, таксама вядомай як го. Бутэлькі з напоем маюць форму чорных і белых камянёў для вэйці, а іх акругленыя формы зручна трымаць у руцэ. Пры адкрыцці скрынкі адкрываецца класічная партыя ў вэйці, паказаная ў графічнай форме. У камплект уваходзяць чашы для камянёў і дошка для вэйці, таму ў гульню можна гуляць, атрымліваючы асалоду ад напою. Скрынка вырабленая з гафрыраванага крафт-кардону, каб абмежаваць адходы матэрыялаў.

Unique Properties
The cultural and creative spirits product launched by Shede comes in a gift box themed on the association between the brand connotation of Shede Spirits and the culture of Weiqi, also called Go.

Dimensions & Packaging
312mm*312mm*142mm
Tags
Shede Spirits, Spirits Packaging, Weiqi Culture, Interactive Weiqi Game, Environmentally Friendly Materials
Production Technology
The kraft paper used to make this corrugated box is environmentally friendly, and conducive to reducing resource waste. Not only does this material selection add environmental values to the whole packaging, but it also puts social responsibility at the forefront of the design philosophy.
Design Challenge
To externalize the cultural combo of Weiqi and spirits, this packaging sheds the stereotypical forms on the market. The spirits bottles, creatively modeled after black and white Weiqi stones, exude an air of Oriental elegance. The complimentary Weiqi stone bowls and Weiqi board add some playability to the box, allowing users to play Weiqi while enjoying the prime spirits. This approach offers users an emotionally interactive experience, which will in turn deepen their impression of the brand.
Research
Rooted in traditional Chinese culture, Shede Spirits and Weiqi are the two gems of Chinese wisdom shining over years. The goal set for this design is to promote Oriental culture and appeal consumers to protect and experience the quintessence of Chinese culture. Moreover, this packaging design reveals the intrinsic association between Shede Spirits and Weiqi, helping upgrade this spirits product into a renowned one with profound cultural connotation whilst boosting the brand development strategy.
Inspiration
Shede Spirits and Weiqi are intimately related, although they are in different realms. One of the most important rules in playing Weiqi is focusing on the big picture, which requires exchanging small sacrifices for greater value. This mindset is consistent with the dialectical nexus between abnegation and obtainment, which is also the wisdom valued by Shede Spirits. Inspired by this association, the packaging fully incorporates the Weiqi game, endowing the product with unique cultural value.
Project Duration
The design and development of this project started in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China, in September, 2022. It will be introduced to Chinese market in October, 2023.
Operation Flow
When the box is opened, users will be greeted by a classic Weiqi game in a graphic form, brimming with a unique and culturally rich vibe. The spirits bottles are styled after black and white Weiqi stones, which are rounded, sleek, and therefore comfortable to hold. This box also comes with complimentary Weiqi stone bowls and Weiqi board, whereby users can play Weiqi and get a glimpse into its spiritual core over a glass of spirits.
