About arcAdia Italian Vodka (Concept Bottle) Wodkaflasche

arcAdia ist eine Konzeptflasche für italienischen Wodka. Die Flasche besteht aus Glas und besitzt einen polygonalen Boden mit einem Durchmesser von 10 Zentimetern sowie eine Höhe von 33 Zentimetern. Die vielflächige Form lässt sich angenehm greifen und leicht ausgießen. Angeboten werden drei Ausführungen: ein flaches cyanfarbenes Glas, eine Silberoberfläche mit 70 Prozent Deckkraft sowie ein schwarzes Glas mit 85 Prozent Deckkraft, das den Wodka im Inneren dennoch erkennen lässt. Eine Geschenkverpackung aus Leichtmetall öffnet sich durch Drehen des oberen Teils, der während des Transports geschlossen bleibt. Die Formgebung soll schlicht und zugleich ausdrucksstark wirken.
