About No48 Diffużur Tal-Fwieħa

L-istudjo Omecara iddefinixxa forma li tevoka ambra illustrata jew ċagħaq li tinsab fuq ix-xatt tal-baħar, u b'hekk tkisser mal-immaġni tradizzjonali tal-ambra griż. Il-forma kienet iddisinjata biex tevoka solidi u likwidi, art u baħar. L-identità hija kkaratterizzata bin-numru 48, ittri fejn il-kwadru maskili 4 u t-8 fit-tond femminili jikkumplimentaw lil xulxin. It-trattament tipografiku jagħti impressjoni ta 'ħeffa ta' mistrieħ, filwaqt li l-ittimbrar bis-sħana kulur id-deheb, fl-istess dell bħall-fwieħa, jassoċja kontenitur u kontenut. Logħob sottili ta’ opposti u duwalità.

Unique Properties
The No48 fragrance diffuser combines style and discretion, offering an intense amber fragrance that diffuses through the single black wooden stick. The Omecara studio has created an identity characterised by the number 48, a lettering where the masculine square 4 and the feminine rounded 8 complement each other. The typographic treatment gives a sensation of restful lightness, while the golden hot stamping in the same shade as the perfume delicately combines container and content. The colours of the glass bottle are the opposite of the colour palette used for the packaging.

Design Challenge
The complexity of this project stems from the fact that the opposites had to be harmoniously combined within the same composition. The precision of the gold hot stamping on the edge of the packaging demanded a high degree of technical skill, it had to be precise without cracking or damaging and create a perfect fit. The packaging had to reflect a certain level of sophistication while being extremely simple.
Research
The Omecara studio has synthesised two natural elements mysteriously linked by their names: ambergris, an animal raw material used in perfumery, and yellow amber, an ornamental resin that owes its name to the Arabic word "anbar", which designates ambergris. The relevance of the project results from a play between opposites: land/sea, masculine/feminine, square/round, solid/liquid, container/content, black/white.
Inspiration
The synthesis of ambergris and yellow amber has resulted in a delicate abstract form that evokes polished amber or a pebble found by the sea, breaking with the traditional image of ambergris. The shape has been carefully designed to evoke solid and liquid, land and sea. The chromatic choice of gold was obvious, embodying on the one hand the colour of amber and on the other the symbolic value of ambergris. The minimalist typographic composition evokes the Zen garden and gives a feeling of lightness and relaxation. A subtle play of opposites and duality.
Project Duration
November 2020 in Luxembourg
Operation Flow
To reinforce the conceptual value of the duality, the golden shape embraces the edge of the packaging in a balanced way. Presented side by side, the packages create a harmonious scenography reconstituting the golden pebble. The chromatic harmony of gold, intense black and white creates a soothing and precise composition.
