About Hong Lou Meng Dream Ten Ambalaža za alkoholna pića

San o crvenoj odaji Deset snova je luksuzni dizajn ambalaže za bajiu, tradicionalno kinesko alkoholno piće. Silueta boce prati liniju krova Velikog vrta, ambijenta iz klasičnog romana San o crvenoj odaji. Uzorci lišća bananovca poredani su oko boce u slojevima, podsjećajući na naborane suknje. Boca je izrađena od fine keramike i završena cloisonné emajlom, tradicionalnom kineskom rukotvorinom. Kontrastne boje čine oblik vizualno prepoznatljivim. Oblik omogućuje jednostavno rukovanje i otvaranje, dok jasno označavanje prikazuje informacije o proizvodu.

Tags
Luxury Baijiu Packaging, Inspired by Dream of the Red Chamber, Bottle Shape Inspired by Grand View Garden Roof, Traditional Plantain Leaf Patterns, Cloisonne Enamel Craftsmanship, Contrast Color Design
Production Technology
In terms of colour, traditional high end contrast combinations make the bottle visually more striking. Combining premium ceramic material with cloisonne enamel craftsmanship results in an exceptionally refined package. The ceramic is fine textured and vividly coloured, whereas the cloisonne technique exemplifies the exquisite skills of traditional Chinese handicrafts, lending a sense of nobility and luxury to the bottle.
Design Challenge
The challenge was merging cultural elements from Dream of the Red Chamber with contemporary design techniques to create uniquely appealing packaging. Through meticulously exploring the cultural implications and artistic styles of the novel, classic elements like Grand View Garden architecture and plantain leaf patterns were reinterpreted using modern design methods, achieving a harmonious blend of old and new, expressing the unique character and noble quality of the brand.
Research
This project responds to the demand in the high end baijiu market, where consumers value not only quality and taste but also the cultural connotation, aesthetic value, and uniqueness of packaging. This design addresses these needs by deeply integrating cultural elements from Dream of the Red Chamber, thereby meeting high end positioning and cultural conveyance demands.
Inspiration
The design embodies classical aesthetics from Dream of the Red Chamber. The bottle silhouette mirrors the roofline of the Grand View Garden, featuring rhythmic lines that resemble an artwork. The plantain leaf patterns are artistically arranged on the bottle, resembling layered skirts, adding grace and vitality. Utilizing cloisonne enamel craftsmanship further showcases Eastern charm exquisitely.
Project Duration
Initiated in Chengdu in March 2024 and launched in China in September of the same year.
Operation Flow
User experience was at the heart of the design process, ensuring the bottle was ergonomically shaped for easy handling and opening. Clear labelling enhances product information accessibility, while smart packaging design facilitates ease of use and protection.
