About Dragon Year Gift Ambalaža za čaj

Godina zmaja je poklon je dizajn ambalaže za Pu'er čaj, osmišljen kao poklon za kinesku proslavu Proljetnog festivala. Dizajn se nadahnjuje zmajem, blagotvornom životinjom u drevnoj kineskoj mitologiji, te planinskom regijom Yunnan, odakle potječe Pu'er čaj. Ručno nacrtan zmaj u kaligrafskom i tušnom slikarskom stilu kombiniran je s jednostavnim simbolom zmaja izrađenim putem grafičkog softvera. Suzdržana vanjska ambalaža kontrastira sa smjelim stilom tuša unutarnje ambalaže. Ručno izrađen pamučni papir lokalnih etničkih zajednica tiskan je sitotiskom, tako da je svaki komad jedinstven.

Unique Properties
Using calligraphy and ink painting as forms of expression, the illustrations and text of the "dragon" were hand drawn, and a concise "dragon" symbol was drawn using computer graphics software. The collision of the two shapes the unique temperament of the product. The restrained graphic style of the outer packaging and the wild ink style of the inner packaging form a strong contrast, which coincides with the refreshing and strong aftertaste of tea drinking.

Production Technology
The packaging material adopts handmade paper unique to local ethnic minorities, which is environmentally friendly, simple, and rich in vicissitudes, expressing the ancient and cultural connotations of tea products.
Design Challenge
In terms of creation, it is necessary to inherit and activate local traditional culture, while realizing the inherent correlation between "Spring Festival", "Dragon Year", and "Tea"; In terms of material selection, Dai handmade cotton paper was used, which has a low production capacity. However, its long history, soft texture, and clear texture reveal the atmosphere of Eastern culture.
Research
In order to highlight the regional cultural characteristics of the product during the creative process, many attempts were made, and ultimately, the unique Dai handmade cotton paper was selected for screen printing, with each copy being unique.
Inspiration
The year of the dragon is approaching, and the dragon is an animal in ancient Chinese mythology, symbolizing auspiciousness. We took the theme of "Dragon" and drew inspiration from the geographical characteristics of Yunnan, China, the birthplace of "Pu'er tea", as well as the refreshing and strong aftertaste of the drink. We created packaging that showcases the characteristics of the product and the attributes of Dragon Year gifts.
Project Duration
The project started in Shenzhen in October 2023, was completed in Yunnan in December 2023, and was launched into the market for sales in Shenzhen in January 2014. Simultaneously achieving excellent sales performance.
Operation Flow
As the Dragon Year Spring Festival approaches, based on local cultural customs, we draw nutrients from ancient dragon totems and combine them with modern design contexts to create tea gifts that conform to the theme of the Dragon Year Spring Festival, showcasing the cultural taste of users.
