Since its establishment, Threegun has consistently used red, a color deeply rooted in Chinese tradition, as a core element of its visual identity. The red hue is considered one of the essential assets that must be retained within the brand's visual system. The systematic use of grid systems in packaging unifies the layout. As for the package background, designer have modernly integrated the character Three into the pattern design. This motif has become a key visual asset for Threegun, continuing to play a significant role in their subsequent visual design.

- Production Technology
- In terms of appearance, we have extracted the specifications and names of the products into Chinese characters as the core identification elements of the symbol. The condensed Chinese characters enable consumers to establish recognition of products and make it easier for them to remember the brand.
- Design Challenge
- It is difficult to see any direct relationship between design and cost in this project, but the sorting and classification system hidden behind the scenes is the key to reducing costs. THREEGUN has developed a wide range of products over 80 years of brand history, with many different specifications under each product line. The design system that clarifies these product lines and specifications is the key to significant cost savings behind the scenes.
- Project Duration
- The project was completed in 2024.
- Operation Flow
- More importantly, it helps the brand review systematically, enabling them to plan their product lines and strategic planning more effectively.
- Research
- In the Chinese market, especially in the underwear category, using Chinese characters as brand identity and functional identity is the first of its kind, especially when we have cleverly integrated them into a cohesive visual language, which is an area that other brands have yet to venture into.
- Inspiration
- As a time-honored brand in China, Threegun selected Chinese characters to convey warm and humanistic feelings. As a national brand, using Chinese characters is a better way to communicate with consumers and to form brand recognition.
