- Production Technology
- The boxes are crafted from sturdy cardboard material and have been subjected to processes like matte lamination and embossing, in order to enhance the perceived levels of surface texts and graphics. In certain product lines, the packaging surface is further ornamented with foil stamping to accent the precious properties of the raw materials.
- Design Challenge
- During the design process, the primary concern was how to guarantee a consistent exhibition of all the products. Making a trade-off between consistency and individuality was of utmost importance. Hundreds of packaging styles were experimented and evaluated, finalizing an approach that accents the product itself, integrates cultural elements, and explores diverse patterns and symbolic colors.
- Project Duration
- The project kicked off in March 2023 in Heilongjiang, wrapped in in Hangzhou by June 2023, and exhibited in September 2023 in Harbin and Guangzhou.
- Operation Flow
- These processes cover various stages, including design production, printing processing, die-cutting, folding, and bonding. In these stages, the key steps involve design validation, printing quality inspection, die-cutting precision adjustment, folding angle control, and bonding firmness inspection. Ultimately, a range of finished packaging products is obtained.
- Research
- By capitalizing on visually appealing effects, the inherent association between the product and culture can be reproduced, accenting the product's value information. The use of traditional brush calligraphy font serves as a vital symbol of oriental flavor and visual coherence.
- Inspiration
- Unlike other products, the most appealing point of promoting these health products is precious plant and animal extracts. Therefore, the packaging design aims to effectively communicate the characteristics of these raw materials to the users in a quick and intuitive manner. To make this happen, visual effects such as symbolic colors, typography, and a consistent style of product graphics are used, thereby ensuring a cohesive and uniform look across the entire product range.
