- Unique Properties
- Sake has been connected to the faith of Japanese people since ancient times and is treated as an entity connecting people and the Gods. It is an essential and crucial aspect when discussing the culture of our country.
Therefore, we incorporated the "shīde" (paper streamers), a motif representing the essence of Shinto prayers, onto the bottle shape that recreates the natural form produced by the surface tension of the liquid, capturing the moment when a drop of purified alcohol falls. - Dimensions & Packaging
- 11cm x 11cm x 25.5cm/Outer dimensions of box
- Design Challenge
- We aimed to design a bottle with a clear concept, reflecting the shape of water, so there were very few difficulties in the design process. However, because the bottle is organic and asymmetrical, there were various challenges for the manufacturing company.
