Focused on escaping from old-fashioned realism, the design is more modern and abstract. The sliced straight line of the body conveys a tough carcass and the uncompromising spirit of an Ox.
Regarding the brand design, by extending the last stroke specifically implies the Chinese meaning of "Niu (a slang for 'awesome') till the end".

Design Challenge: In mid 2020, Niulanshan has begun planning the launch of Year of the Ox limited edition, not only the Ox Year carries weight to the brand, but also with NIU meaning "Ox", the brand is originated from a golden bull that brings welfare in ancient stories. Niulanshan hopes to ditch realism used in past Zodiac limited editions, aiming to attract young consumers with a contemporary abstract design.
Research: Using 12 as a cycle, each lunar year is represented by an animal, and 2021 is the year of the ox. The 12 zodiac signs and the 24 solar terms constituted an important tool for ancient Chinese to calculate time, predict the weather, and harvest mulberry. Chinese has much love and imagination for the zodiac, and Chinese liquor brands launch limited editions targeting different zodiacs yearly.
Inspiration: We focused on escaping from old-fashioned realism, using a more modern abstract design. The blade-sliced straight line of the bottle body conveys the tough carcass and the uncompromising character of an Ox.
Regarding the brand design, we removed everything except for the most important calligraphy font "Niu"(Ox). Extending the last stroke specifically implies the Chinese meaning of "Niu (a slang for 'awesome') till the end" a greater desire to reach goals.
