The Design

About Hotel New Grand Ready-to-eat Meals 食品パッケージ

「ホテルニューグランド レトルト食品」は、ビーフカレー、チキンカレー、ナポリタンソースなどの調理済み食品のためのパッケージデザインである。箱は板紙製で、寸胴鍋をモチーフとしたグラフィックを主要な意匠要素として用いている。ミニマルなデザインにより、レトルト食品のパッケージでよく見られるイラストレーションや料理写真をあえて排している。その意図は、横浜のクラシックホテルが持つ伝統と品格を、機知に富んだ表現で伝えることにある。このパッケージは家庭での食事にふさわしく、また贈り物としても選ばれている。

Design Challenge
The minimalist design of this product avoids the use of illustrations or photos of food commonly seen on the packaging of ready-to-eat products, and is fitting for high-quality food that has been prepared in the kitchens of prestigious hotels.
Research
In our preliminary research, none of the designs conveyed the tradition and prestige of the hotel with wit. In this respect, we found a way to differentiate our product from the competition.
Inspiration
This product is a ready-to-eat meals (Beef curry, Chicken curry, Napolitan - pasta sauce) package design for Hotel New Grand, the only classic hotel in Yokohama that opened in December 1927. We wanted to convey the tradition and prestige of the hotel with a little wit to entertain those who saw this design.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2020 and finished in November 2020 in Japan.
Operation Flow
It is popular with many people who want to enjoy the taste of a hotel at home or as a gift for someone special.
