About Niulanshan Primary Function: Опаковка за бутилка спиртна напитка
Book Text: Niulanshan е ограничена серия опаковъчен дизайн за китайска марка спиртни напитки, издаден по повод Годината на Вола. Бутилката е изработена от стъкло, а кутията – от дърво. Дизайнът избягва реализма и използва модерна и абстрактна форма. Права линия, сякаш срязана с острие върху тялото на бутилката, загатва за здравото тяло и непоколебимия характер на вола. Марковият знак запазва само калиграфския йероглиф Niu, който означава вол. Последният щрих е удължен, за да загатне за китайската фраза „Niu до края“ – пожелание за постигане на целите. Замисълът е да привлече млади потребители.

- Design Challenge
- In mid 2020, Niulanshan has begun planning the launch of Year of the Ox limited edition, not only the Ox Year carries weight to the brand, but also with NIU meaning "Ox", the brand is originated from a golden bull that brings welfare in ancient stories. Niulanshan hopes to ditch realism used in past Zodiac limited editions, aiming to attract young consumers with a contemporary abstract design.
- Research
- Using 12 as a cycle, each lunar year is represented by an animal, and 2021 is the year of the ox. The 12 zodiac signs and the 24 solar terms constituted an important tool for ancient Chinese to calculate time, predict the weather, and harvest mulberry. Chinese has much love and imagination for the zodiac, and Chinese liquor brands launch limited editions targeting different zodiacs yearly.
