The Design

About West Lake Beer Pecynnu Cwrw

Mae West Lake Beer yn ddyluniad pecynnu ar gyfer cwrw potel. Mae'r dyluniad yn tynnu ar olygfeydd Llyn y Gorllewin yn Hangzhou, gan ddehongli'r Bont Doredig a'r Tri Phwll yn Adlewyrchu'r Lleuad fel symbolau gweledol haniaethol. Mae'r deipograffeg yn cyfuno sgript sêl ag arddull caligraffeg Brenhinllin Song. Mae'r blwch allanol wedi'i orffen â stampio aur a ffilm fat i roi ansawdd cyffyrddol llyfn. Mae'r botel wedi'i gwneud o wydr gwyrdd o ansawdd uchel, sy'n cyfyngu ar olau uwchfioled ac yn helpu i gadw blas y cwrw. Mae'r tyrau cerrig a ddangosir ar y botel yn dynodi cryfder pob blas.

Unique Properties: The packaging design of West Lake Beer incorporates cultural symbols and aesthetic features of West Lake, artistically interpreting elements such as Broken Bridge and Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon.

Dimensions & Packaging: product dimensions, 64.5 mm x 64.5 mm x 250 mm
Tags: Beer packaging, West Lake iconic elements, Seal script font, Song Dynasty calligraphy typography, Eastern aesthetics
Production Technology: The exterior box is crafted with a gold stamping process, enhancing its visual appeal and offering consumers a unique tactile experience.
The bottle is constructed from high quality green glass, providing excellent optical protection that minimizes the potential for UV light to interact with beer compounds and cause odors or oxidation, preserving the freshness and flavor profile of the beer.
Design Challenge: The challenge is capturing the cultural essence of West Lake. The West Lake Beer font mimics the graceful arch of the Broken Bridge, and some strokes resemble the soaring eaves of the mid lake pavilion, integrating West Lake aesthetics and seal script.
The label is inspired by Song Dynasty calligraphy, from right to left, with a negative silhouette of Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon. Consumers can feel the profound Chinese aesthetics and the ethereal beauty of West Lake while enjoying the beer.
Research: Through extensive research and excavation of West Lake culture, the design team has effectively translated the natural beauty and humanistic landscape of West Lake into visual elements incorporated into the beer packaging design. This process not only elevates the cultural and artistic value of the product but also serves as a valuable reference for the modernization and evolution of traditional beer brands.
Inspiration: Inspired by the renowned natural and cultural landscape, West Lake in Hangzhou, the design elevates the cultural added value of the beer through the utilization of colors, patterns, and materials. The design team selected the West Lake sceneries, the Broken Bridge and Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon, and interpreted them into visual symbols abstractly and artistically. They were blended into every facet of the packaging, making it a medium for expressing the cultural connotation of West Lake.
Project Duration: The project was designed and developed in December 2022 in Beijing.
Operation Flow: The Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon stone towers are designed to represent the varying intensities of the beer flavors on the bottle. This visual arrangement enhances the sensory exploration of taste and promotes social interaction among consumers during the savoring. The outer box is made of matte film with great texture, which offers a delicate tactile experience with jade like warmness and smoothness, further reflecting the cultural richness and high quality of the West Lake Beer brand.
