The Design

About Fenvee Essence Smaržu iepakojums

Fenvee Essence ir smaržu iepakojuma dizains, kas iedvesmots no tradicionālo ķīniešu logu režģa rakstiem. Iepakojuma izmēri ir 55 mm platumā, 55 mm dziļumā un 170 mm augstumā. Izmantots faktūrpapīrs, un minimālistiskā struktūra ierobežo nepieciešamo tintes un līmes daudzumu. Apdruka un reljefspiedums izceļ smalkās detaļas un rada gaismas un ēnu spēli, kas mainās, iepakojumu kustinot. Gluda atvēršanas mehānisma darbība papildina taustes sajūtu pieredzi. Dizains apvieno kultūras mantojumu ar ilgtspējīgiem materiāliem.
