Design Challenge
The challenge was to create a design that consumers could intuitively understand as chilled milk. In pursuit of a simpler and higher quality milk package, the team aimed to maintain the conventional package style. A prominent design feature is the bold display of the protein content, "4.7g," which intuitively communicates the high quality ingredients to consumers, even at a glance on the store shelf. Moreover, the silhouette of a cow, rendered in luxurious gold, adds a touch of elegance and represents the excellent rearing environment. This is further embellished with patterns of plants and flowers to signify natural quality.
Research
Analysis of luxury supermarkets where products are sold. Competitive analysis in internet sales. Analysis of consumer in the market. Packaging design analysis of the Japanese market.
Inspiration
Inspired by the tradition and high quality of purple, a color traditionally associated with nobility in Japan and China, the design evokes an intuitive sense of elegance in Asians. The deep purple accentuates the richness of the milk, while a bold white ribbon symbolizes its essence. A crown at the top, formed from drops of rich milk, represents supremacy and the high quality of the Japanese brand. The combination of purple, white, and gold ensures a memorable design that stands out significantly.
