Production Technology
Those five package series need to have different structures which means they need to be opened in various ways. Designers need to take all the aspects into consideration in advance. For example, the most expensive one is the orange box, which will open like a book from middle.

The final products consist 5 different packages, with 5 different structure and size, meanwhile should look like a complete set of package series and in a narrative manner.
Research
The design team went to Enshi city which is the most significant scenic area in Hubei province, not only the local building but also its rich tourism activities make the place attractive. The illustration somehow demonstrate the feature of Enshi city meanwhile mixed some mid-autumn festival activities into the drawing, such as dragon boat racing, lighten the sky lanterns etc.
Inspiration
During Mid-autumn festival, Shien city will turn into a lively place, where people will eat mooncake, beat drums and race dragon boats to celebrate the festival. Designers wanted to depict this flourishing scene on the package. Designer team painted a magnificent picture of mid autumn festival by hand drawing illustration, then been cut into 5 parts for each package. the mooncake package serve as a tool to promote the culture of Shien city by applying Chinese style illustration.
Project Duration
This project started in August 2019 in Hangzhou and finished in September 2019 in Hangzhou. Printed all the boxes in Hubei.
Operation Flow
After several rounds of discussions with our clients, the designers need to understand how consumers prefer while purchasing mooncake gift pack, if the box is too small, people will consider it not worthwhile as a gift, however if the size is too big, it will not be convenient for them to carry around. It is important to take all the facts into consideration while designing. The design team eventually came up five different packages to fit different need and budgets.
