- Production Technology
- The design results of this paper enrich the design field of "Pu-erh tea" as the theme, together with tea products, tea brands, tea utensils and tea packaging, as a part of Chinese tea culture for cultural export to the world.
- Design Challenge
- Combing and screening information data and related knowledge of Pu-erh tea, forming a more complete information structure, simplifying complex information, and completing the study of information visualization design of Pu-erh tea with visual expressions such as text, graphics, charts and illustrations.
- Project Duration
- between 2019 and 2022, and fieldwork in Yunnan, with design drawings completed in Suzhou.
- Operation Flow
- To provide the public with an efficient and convenient way to learn the basics of tea and tea culture, to awaken people to the importance of learning, inheriting and promoting Chinese tea culture, and to enrich the forms of design based on the theme of "tea", together with tea products, tea brands, tea utensils and tea packaging, as part of Chinese tea culture, to export to the world.
- Research
- The main objective of information design is to "transmit information with performance", which is a different development direction from the graphic design that advocates "fine artistic expression". We will sort out and filter the information data and related knowledge of Pu'er tea, form a more complete information structure, simplify the complex information, and complete the information visualization design research of Pu'er tea with visual expressions such as text, graphics, diagrams and illustrations.
- Inspiration
- The visualization design is based on the species of Pu'er tea tree, ecological characteristics, biodiversity and distribution of origin, while the evaluation is made from a professional perspective, and the functions and efficacy of Pu'er tea are explained from a biological and chemical perspective, and finally the political environment, economic exchanges, cultural activities and social life of ancient and modern times are formed into a more complete information visualization design content.
