About Guijiu Zodiac Series Boca za alkoholno piće

Guijiu Zodiac serija je komemorativno pakovanje za alkoholno piće kreirano povodom kineske godine zmaja. Forma je inspirisana drevnim kineskim keramičkim posudama sa strukturom dvostrukih ušiju. Boca je izrađena od kristalnog stakla u kombinaciji sa metalnim dijelovima, za razliku od keramičkih posuda koje se obično koriste za vrhunska kineska alkoholna pića. Ilustracija zmaja izvedena tušem odštampana je na etiketi, a metalna komponenta u obliku zmaja na čepu služi kao mehanizam za otvaranje. Boca je visoka 240 mm, a dužina i širina iznose 110 mm.

Production Technology
In China, most high-end liquors are stored in ceramic containers. This product uses a crystal material paired with a metal material to exude a luxurious and high-class feel, while standing out among similar products.
Design Challenge
The difficulty in realizing this project was that traditional Chinese sauce-flavor liquor brands tend to use ceramic material as the carrier of the product's cultural essence. The use of crystal glass broke away from the design approach of similar products, and the metal dragon-shaped part at the cap had a unique shape, requiring persuasion for clients to proceed with mold manufacturing.
Research
In the Chinese liquor market, Chinese Zodiac wine is a product that every brand competes to launch. However, most products are styled with figurative representations of the Chinese zodiac, and there is a lack of products that combine simplicity, sophistication, and heritage. This design fills the gap of high-end products of the same type.
Inspiration
The project draws inspiration from the classic ancient Chinese ceramic vessels with a double-ear structure, which have been developed and inherited over thousands of years in China. Combined with the Chinese dragon illustration in ink on the label, it expresses deep cultural heritage. While the intricate metal carving and simple crystal block body of the bottle create a new vitality for the product.
Project Duration
The project started in March 2023, was completed in November 2023 and is scheduled to be available in 2024.
Operation Flow
This design features a dragon-shaped component at the bottle cap that serves as the opening mechanism, while its elegant shape also enhances its aesthetic appeal.
