The Design

About Baltija Chocolate Collection Kemasan Kembang Gula

Baltija adalah seri kemasan untuk koleksi cokelat yang dijual di kawasan Baltik. Namanya berasal dari kata dalam bahasa Lituania untuk Laut Baltik, yang menjadi inspirasi desain ini. Sebuah mercusuar dan pemandangan laut diilustrasikan dengan gaya Victoria klasik, dengan bentuk-bentuk bergelombang yang menyiratkan gerakan air. Tidak ada simbol nasional yang digunakan, sehingga kemasan ini mewakili keseluruhan kawasan, bukan satu negara saja. Nuansa biru kehijauan yang pekat menambah kesan elegan. Kotak dan amplopnya terbuat dari kertas, dicetak dengan teknik offset, serta difinishing dengan pernis matte dan detail foil tembaga.

Unique Properties: All countries that are bound to baltic sea are unique in their own way. That is why no specific graphic elements were used that would indicate on country or another. Design was thought to be as timeless as possible so classic victorian style illustration were created. This style is full of wavy and dynamic forms that resembles sea movement and volatility. Background contains unique sea scenery together with lighthouse in the foreground connecting it all together.
Dimensions & Packaging: All boxes and envelopes was made from paper, offset printing with matte varnish and copper foil elements.

Production Technology: All packagings were printed with offset technology, enriched with matte varnish and copper foil elements.
Design Challenge: Biggest challenge was to find symbol that would be unifying throughout the Baltic region, find the target audience and how the product is consumed. With this criteria in mind big challenge was to pick the right subtle and yet luxury style for the graphics which would also has to be timeless and very different from the competition.
Research: One of the most important task was to determine the consumer of the product. Research revealed that oftentimes it is bought as a souvenir from the baltic region. This gave an insight that it should not be associated with one country and it also should communicate the Baltic sea more than box contents. Appearance is really important part of package which is intended to be the gift. Extreme attentions was given to details as well as overall package aesthetics to trigger positive emotion to the end user.
Inspiration: Confectionery name Baltija came from name of the Baltic Sea in lithuanian. The sea was the main inspiration of this project. It is neighbouring 8 countries, which are all different. Sea is calm and do not carry its own identity as such. That is why the lighthouse was selected as the main symbol of the packaging. Sea also was the inspiration when picking colour. Deep greenish blue colour gave vibrance and luxury feel letting it stand out in the context of confectionery packaging all over the balt
Project Duration: This project started in January 2020 February and finished 2020 May
Operation Flow: Three separate packages were created for this product line. One of the boxes containing more than fifty candies plastic usage was reduced and paper separations were introduced. Fifteen candy box was decorated with uncommon type of cover giving overall packaging more elegance. To extend same visual experience chocolate bar was packed in carton envelope containing the same graphics.
