About Love Hanshui Emballage til drikkevand

Love Hanshui er en mindeemballageserie til renset drikkevand, skabt for at markere udnævnelsen af Wuhan som international vådområdeby. Fire hjemmehørende dyr, finneløs marsvin, hvidhovedet and, sort stork og davidshjort, repræsenterer årets fire årstider. Traditionelt kinesisk tuschmaleri forener dyrene med det lokale vådområdelandskab. Den hvide flaskeetiket er fremstillet med en varmekrympeproces og staffagefarvetryk. Hver flaske er 60 millimeter bred og 220 millimeter høj. En kode på etiketten åbner en tredimensionel visning.
