The Design

About Winter Navel Orange Verpackung

Das Design ist die Förderung der Orange, genannt Wintermarine, die von einem Bio-Bauernhof hergestellt wird. Das Paket enthält zwei Kartongrößen, eine Informationskarte und einen Umschlag für Orangenschäler. Die Wintermarine kann erst nach der Taufe der vier Jahreszeiten gepflückt werden. Die Herausforderung des Designs besteht darin, die Bedeutung der langwierigen Wachstumsroutine und der unterschiedlichen Form eines Orangenbaums während vier Jahreszeiten auf der Verpackung zu veranschaulichen. Das Designteam entwickelte eine Zeichnung, die von der Geschichte von Jack und Bohnenstange inspiriert war. Betonung des Begriffs der Harmonie zwischen Natur und Mensch.

Production Technology
the illustration on the package was hand drawn with watercolor and color pencils, then scanned into photoshop to future modification. it then combine with pattern and logo generated by computer.
Design Challenge
Rather than using simple computer drawing for the package, we choose to use hand drawing to demonstrate the spirit of craftsman. the winter naval orange can only be picked after the baptism of the four seasons, client asked to promote this feature to customers through package design, that's why we use hand drawing and illustrate different form of orange tree through four seasons.
Research
we did research on how winter navel grow in different seasons and what does an orange tree looks like during various stage. meanwhile we studied watercolor drawing techniques in order to produce vivid image for package design.
Inspiration
Our aim is to illustrate the significance of winter navel's elongated growth routine and the prosperous state of the farm. To redefine the traditional appearance of agricultural products, the design is created with vibrant energy in response to the taste to younger generations. The twisted and intertwine stems of an orange tree depicted in four seasons is inspired by the tale of jack and the beanstalk. It suggests a powerful growth of the orchard, and emphases harmony between nature and mankind.
Project Duration
The project started in June 2019 in Hangzhou and finished in July 2019 in Hangzhou, and was manufactured in Guangzhou in August 2019.
Operation Flow
we use watercolor as main tool to illustrate the growth process of winter navel. we also demonstrate the beauty of farmland scenery.
