About Forest Spring Envàs per a Ampolla d'Aigua
Forest Spring és un disseny d'envàs per a aigua embotellada. L'etiqueta es basa en el caràcter xinès sen, que significa bosc, transformat en un paisatge de tinta. Els traços cal·ligràfics, la gradació tonal i el contrast espacial evoquen muntanyes, arbres i vitalitat natural dins d'una sola forma. La composició es va perfeccionar en format vectorial i es va calibrar per garantir una reproducció d'impressió consistent. L'ampolla transparent té una capacitat de 500 mil·lilitres i disposa d'un tap de rosca. El disseny expressa puresa i harmonia entre les persones i la natura.

- Chinese character design, forest symbolism, water ink landscape, typography innovation, eco-conscious branding
- Production Technology
- The design was realized through structural deconstruction of the character "sen," examining stroke proportion and spatial hierarchy to reconstruct it as a landscape form. digital ink-wash simulations replicated xuan paper diffusion and tonal gradation. The composition was refined in vector format for scalability and brand application, then color-calibrated with cmyk optimization to ensure consistency across print and packaging production.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was transforming the Chinese character "sen" into a visually compelling landscape while preserving its legibility and cultural meaning. internally, balancing historical calligraphy aesthetics with modern brand storytelling required careful study of traditional ink techniques and symbolism. externally, constraints included digital reproduction limits, printing technology, and material properties, which demanded iterative testing and refinement to ensure both artistic integrity and practical manufacturability.
- Research
- Type of research: design-driven cultural study. Objective: explore how Chinese characters can convey ecological and brand values. methodology: visual analysis and typographic experimentation. Data collection/tools: ink painting simulations, digital sketching, surveys on perception. participants: 30 viewers and design experts. results: "sen" effectively communicates nature and purity. Insights: integrating traditional aesthetics enhances brand storytelling and fosters eco-conscious design, impacting society and sustainable product perception.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the ecological symbolism of the Chinese character "sen" (forest), this project explores how typography embodies environmental philosophy. Drawing from traditional chinese ink landscape aesthetics and harmony between humanity and nature, the design transforms a character into a spatial visual narrative. The research integrates calligraphic structure, ink composition, and brand communication strategies to express the natural purity and sustainable values of "forest spring."
- Project Duration
- The project started in August 2025 in Hangzhou and finished in October 2025 in Hangzhou
- Operation Flow
- The bottle is easy to use: simply twist off the cap to pour or drink. Its ergonomic shape fits comfortably in hand, while the transparent body allows users to see the water level. the label’s visual design guides the eye to the brand and emphasizes purity.
