The Design
About Imperial Gift Box Primær funksjon: Emballasjedesign
Boktekst: Designet av Six Treasures Imperial Tea-gaveesken henter inspirasjon fra den kinesiske keiserlige drakekåpen. Den firkantede esken har en sirkulær silkebroderi med dobbeltdrager på den ene siden og en peon, Kinas nasjonalblomst, på den andre, som symboliserer harmoni mellom himmel og jord. De doble lokkene åpner seg innover som sommerfuglvinger og avslører skimrende gylne teflasker i krystall som vekker assosiasjoner til keiserlig adel. Kinesisk kalligrafi og seglelementer integrert i logoen og emballasjen fremhever omdannelsen av klassisk estetikk til moderne design.
