About Rock Rhyme Tea 차 패키지 디자인

암운차(Rock Rhyme Tea)는 중국 우롱차인 우이 암차(武夷岩茶)를 위한 패키지 디자인이다. 절벽 틈새에서 자라는 차나무에서 영감을 얻었으며, 바위의 회색 질감에 송대 목판화 요소와 현대적인 붓 터치를 결합했다. 구성품에는 차 보관용 캔, 콜드브루 보틀 시리즈, 그리고 12단계 전통 제다 공정을 소개하는 소책자가 포함된다. 경량 소재로 실제 암석의 외관을 구현했으며, 내부 용기에는 방습 및 차광 소재를 사용했다. 손으로 엮은 삼끈 손잡이는 비벼 말린 찻잎의 형상을 연상시킨다. 이 패키지는 가정 보관과 휴대 모두에 적합하다.

This fusion transforms traditional high-end tea into a trendy brand, bridging generations. The set includes tea canisters and a booklet detailing the "12-step craft." The concept extends to a refreshing cold-brew series, offering modern consumers a diverse drinking experience.

Production Technology: The gift boxes and tea canisters are made from lightweight materials that simulate the appearance of real rock. To preserve the tea, the inner canisters and cold-brew bottles use moisture-proof and light-blocking materials. For the carriers, we hand-wove hemp ropes to mimic the twisted texture of traditional rock tea leaves. This design combines traditional handcraft with modern material technology to ensure both aesthetics and functionality.
Design Challenge: To move away from traditional tea canister designs, we challenged ourselves to make the packaging look like real rocks while overcoming mass production limits. We used lightweight materials to achieve this heavy stone appearance. Additionally, we had to ensure that the hand-woven hemp rope carriers were functional and strong enough for daily use.
Research: This research employs a multi-dimensional approach to cultural and market repositioning. By analyzing the 12-step traditional tea-making process alongside semi-structured interviews with a 20-person youth demographic, we identified a significant generational aesthetic gap. Our findings revealed that 85% of target users desired a fusion of historical heritage and modern convenience. Consequently, this project strategically utilizes sensory innovation and youthful visual languages to transform an ancient cultural asset into a commercially viable, high-growth lifestyle product for the global market.
Inspiration: This project is inspired by Rock Tea growing in cliff crevices. As a type of Chinese Oolong tea, our goal is to attract young consumers through youthful packaging, bridging the gap between tea culture and the new generation. Based on research into the 12-step traditional craft and modern tea trends, we transformed rugged rock textures into a contemporary gift experience for the youth market.
Project Duration: The project started in December 2025 in Taiwan and finished in March 2026 in Taiwan, and was exhibited in Young Designers' Exhibition (YODEX) in May 2026 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The gift set uses a simple top-and-bottom lid structure. To access the tea, users lift the main cover to find two large canisters for long-term storage and one small canister for single-use outdoor brewing. All tea canisters feature sealed lids that are opened by pulling the top cover. For immediate drinking, the cold-brew series uses a standard twist-cap bottle. This design allows users to easily switch between home storage and on-the-go convenience.
