The Design

About Kum-Kum Vandemballage

Flasken har symmetriske dråber på sine fire sider, to vendende opad og to vendende nedad, som former vandets form i sin dynamiske underbygning. Hvad angår etiketten og logoet, har Backbone Branding skabt en kombination af en etiket og en fyldt flaske, som viser vandets gennemsigtighed og plasticitet i dets dynamik. Den blå nuance på bagetiketten blander sig harmonisk med flasken og gør, takket være lysets brydning gennem væsken, flasken synlig, og mærkets hvide logo på den gennemsigtige etiket bliver tydeligt på grund af den blåtonede baglabel.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The uniqueness of the project lies in the fact that it is difficult to figure out where the structure of the bottle has started and where it has ended.
The structure, design, selected colors, transparency, label, and logo - all form a solid entity with the water inside.
When rotated the bottle transforms into a drop of water in movement.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width 65mm x Depth 55mm x Height 320mm
Tags: water, transparency, minimalism, structure, packaging, design, dynamics
Production Technology: PET bottle
Transparent label
Design Challenge: Our goal was to showcase the characteristics of water and make them emerge through our design. It needed to be different and stand out from the other brands.
The technology for this new structural design manufacturing is new in Armenia. Initially, the bottle is not cylindrical, its design has a shape similar to a rectangular prism with a droplet-like shape inside it. Whenever we created the design, it faced some difficulties in printing houses and we were compelled to change it 2 times, after which the printing house ordered a new printing machine to be able to get the result according to the design.
Research: Many experiments have been conducted to make this plastic bottle reflect the characteristics of water and make them emerge through our design. The structure of the bottle has been created per consequence of observation of the water in its dynamic state: its movement has become the structure of our bottle.
The label and logo, are designed in order to help show the transparency and plasticity of the water in its dynamics.
Inspiration: The inspiration was drawn from the unique attributes of water, from its transparency to minimalism and its appearance as a droplet when it is in a dynamic state.
Therefore, the form of the falling water droplet was incorporated into the design of the bottle, giving the whole structure a dynamic shape.
Project Duration: The project started in September 2019 in Yerevan, Armenia, and finished in February 2019.
Operation Flow: It breaks the all-known stereotypes of the water bottle and gives tribute to the water by being the simulation of the form and transparency of the water.
