The Design

About Yongxi Dubbelfunctionele Wierookhouder

Dit werk is ontworpen door de heer En Ke, geïnspireerd op de oude Chinese koninklijke cultuur. De verpakking is herontworpen met de elementen van het wolkenpatroon uit de Verboden Stad; het algehele kunstwerk doet denken aan ivoor en belichaamt volledig de schoonheid van het Oosten. Bij het openen van het deksel komt een wierookhouder van goudenphoebehout tevoorschijn, gewikkeld in milieuvriendelijk papier. Dit ontwerp doorbreekt de traditie door twee functies - verbranding en opslag - in één productontwerp te integreren, en is daarom geoctrooieerd in China. Het heeft internationale ontwerprijzen gewonnen en wordt uitstekend ontvangen door de markt!

Design Challenge: Difficulty 1: In Eastern culture, the storage and burning of incense are two independent tools. Modern life advocates practical minimalism. How to break the tradition and combine two tools into one?

Difficulty 2: The performance and reshaping of historical culture requires innovation, but also needs to ensure that the original brand culture and product experience will not be separated from the original historical and cultural soil?
