Design Details
- Unique Properties
- China is the birthplace of the tea tree and was the first country to discover and utilize tea. Yunnan is the birthplace of the tea tree in the world, and most of the roots of all kinds of tea in the country and even in the world are in the Pu'er tea producing area in Yunnan. The information data of Pu'er tea is organized scientifically and disseminated effectively, so that the audience can read clearly and conveniently and get the content they want to know concisely and efficiently.
- Inspiration
- The visualization design is based on the species of Pu'er tea tree, ecological characteristics, biodiversity and distribution of origin, while the evaluation is made from a professional perspective, and the functions and efficacy of Pu'er tea are explained from a biological and chemical perspective, and finally the political environment, economic exchanges, cultural activities and social life of ancient and modern times are formed into a more complete information visualization design content.
- Research
- The main objective of information design is to "transmit information with performance", which is a different development direction from the graphic design that advocates "fine artistic expression". We will sort out and filter the information data and related knowledge of Pu'er tea, form a more complete information structure, simplify the complex information, and complete the information visualization design research of Pu'er tea with visual expressions such as text, graphics, diagrams and illustrations.
- Challenge
- Combing and screening information data and related knowledge of Pu-erh tea, forming a more complete information structure, simplifying complex information, and completing the study of information visualization design of Pu-erh tea with visual expressions such as text, graphics, charts and illustrations.
- Realization and Technology
- The design results of this paper enrich the design field of "Pu-erh tea" as the theme, together with tea products, tea brands, tea utensils and tea packaging, as a part of Chinese tea culture for cultural export to the world.
- Operation and Interaction
- To provide the public with an efficient and convenient way to learn the basics of tea and tea culture, to awaken people to the importance of learning, inheriting and promoting Chinese tea culture, and to enrich the forms of design based on the theme of "tea", together with tea products, tea brands, tea utensils and tea packaging, as part of Chinese tea culture, to export to the world.
- Project Duration and Location
