The Design

About Zhong Yuan No. 1 Teeverpackung

Zhong Yuan No. 1 ist ein Verpackungsdesign für Maojian-Tee, einen traditionellen chinesischen Tee, der auf Terrassenfeldern angebaut wird. Da der Geschmack des Tees leicht und mild ist, wurde die Verpackung dezent und edel gehalten. Die Teedose besteht aus Weißblech mit Prägung und Goldfolienveredelung, wobei matte und lackierte Oberflächen miteinander kombiniert werden. Die haubenartige Form der Dose erinnert an eine Teepflückerin mit Hut. Die Außenschachtel besteht aus einem eigens angefertigten Papier und wird durch eine geformte Banderole verschlossen, die von den Fensterrahmen alter Teebauernhäuser inspiriert ist. Echte Teeblätter zieren die Banderole.

Production Technology
The tea can is made of tinplate, embossed and gold-stamped. The matte and varnish touch is combined and a sense of delicacy is given out. The outer box is made of customized paper and it comes with the idea of less is more. The belt, however, is made with exquisite embossment and stamping of the major icon, Central Land No.1. A simple box with a fine belt, is mixed to lower the psychological pressure on buyers when consuming the product. Yet, it still is a high-end but well-finished product.
Design Challenge
Inspired by the window frame pattern from the ancient houses of tea farmers, the sealing belt is designed into a traditional frame with the brand's name shown, which is decorated with the actual leaves of the tea. The exquisite techniques also helps to bring a sense of quality of the tea.
Research
As the tea grows in terraced fields and its flavor is lighter and milder than usual tea, the package is made into a more implicative and sophisticated one.
Inspiration
The inspiration comes from the tea and its growing land, which is natural and an eyeful of green. Another factor inspiring the team is the traditional ancient budding aesthetics.With the hat like cap, the can is just like a tea picking farmer.Inspired by the window frame pattern from the ancient houses of tea farmers, the sealing belt is designed into a traditional frame with the brands name shown, which is decorated with the actual leaves of the tea.
Project Duration
