Production Technology
This beer has a very large sales volume. Considering the cost and production efficiency, the designer did not use any special materials, and the most commonly used silver sticker was used for labels.
Design Challenge
The biggest adjustment of this project is to balance the brand and local culture, which requires designers to understand the logic of consumers' purchase of goods, and finally decide to highlight the brand in a limited way, because the brand itself has a very high reputation. When people get the product, they will find their familiar city landmarks and other elements, which will produce a sense of surprise and bring consumers a better sense of experience.
Research
The difficulty of this project is to highlight both the brand and the local culture. Qingdao Beer is one of the most famous beer brands in China, so the designers put the brand first in the vision to highlight, and the local characteristic culture is expressed in silver. From a distance, it will not steal the brand's spotlight, and from a close look, it has a sense of quality; The elements are the most familiar to the local people to obtain the most efficient transmission speed.
Inspiration
The inspiration of the whole label design comes from the famous Chinese painting White Clouds and Yellow Cranes, which depicts the Yellow Crane Tower in Hubei Province. The elements of the Yellow Crane Tower, auspicious clouds and cranes are extracted from the painting and expressed in a more concise way; The "phoenix feather" on the bottle neck label is inspired by the place of Hubei, where people have always admired phoenix.
Project Duration
The project will be started in Wuhan, China in December 2021, completed in Wuhan, China in May 2022, and sold in Hubei, China in August 2022.
Operation Flow
This beer is exclusively for sale in Hubei, China. The designer uses the most representative elements of architecture, cranes, phoenix, etc. in Hubei to make consumers feel familiar and friendly instantly, which can quickly shorten the distance between consumers and brands. At the same time, the left side of the label highlights the brand with a very large font, so that consumers can see it at first sight.
