About Shangze Fruit Music Farm Geschenkbox

Shangze Fruit Music Farm ist eine Geschenkbox für Tomaten, gestaltet in Form eines Retro-Kassettenrekorders. Grafik, Farbgebung und Struktur greifen die visuelle Ästhetik der 1960er- bis 1980er-Jahre auf. Beim Öffnen der Box wird ein Musikmodul aktiviert, das die von einem klassischen Lied adaptierte Markenhymne abspielt. Zum Einsatz kommen flächige Illustrationen von Radios, Nähmaschinen, Filmrollen und Palmblattfächern sowie die Markenfigur Fanxi. Im Inneren halten tomatenförmige Aussparungen die Früchte an ihrem Platz und dämpfen Stöße während des Transports. Orange dient als Hauptfarbe, um jüngere Käuferinnen und Käufer anzusprechen.

Production Technology: The gift box, centered on the shape of a retro cassette player, authentically recreates the aesthetic style common in the 60s to 80s through graphics, colors, and structures. A music module plays the brand anthem, while details like knobs and frequency dials further highlight the function of music playback. The box transforms the typical elements of the 60s to 80s, such as film reel and palm leaf fans, into graphics, achieving a harmonious unity of packaging design and brand culture.
Design Challenge: The core challenge was how to strike a balance between retro elements and modern aesthetic taste. To address that, the design team has employed vibrant orange as the main color to attract younger demographics. The flat illustrations of old objects such as radios and sewing machines embody profound cultural significance and cater to the preferences of younger demographics. The cute IP character Fanxi further adds a touch of youthful energy, perfectly blending nostalgia with fashion.
Research: Market research has confirmed that people who grew up in the 60s to 80s share an emotional connection with the song The East Is Red and old objects like radios and thermos flasks, while younger demographics show curiosity toward nostalgia culture, interactive music mechanisms enhance brand recall, and IP characters emotionally bridge the gap between the brand and its consumers. The gift box demonstrates the practical value of nostalgia driven idea in brand communication and packaging design.
Inspiration: Inspired by the everyday objects typical of the 60s to 80s, the gift box shapes like a retro cassette player, utilizing a tangible form to evoke cultural nostalgia for that distinct historical era. Combined with the era specific elements and the IP character brown eared pheasant Fanxi, it suggests the mission of the product to authentically replicate the rich, sweet flavor of tomatoes in the 60s to 80s, providing a multisensory experience involving visual, auditory, and tactile senses.
Project Duration: The project officially started in Beijing in April 2025 and successfully finished in July of the same year.
Operation Flow: When users open the box, the music module automatically activates and plays the brand anthem adapted from the classic song The East Is Red. This instantly immerses users in the vibrancy of bygone days, creating a nostalgic ambience. Inside the box, tomato shaped cavities not only present a cute visual effect for an engaging experience, but also offer protective cushioning to minimize damage to the product during transportation.
