The Design

About Hainan Beer Bierverpakking

Hainan Beer is een bierverpakkingsontwerp geïnspireerd op het landschap en de cultuur van Hainan. De glazen fles is voorzien van reliëfpatronen ontleend aan zeegolven, zeilboten, vuurtorens, kokospalmen en zeevogels, en dankzij de slanke vorm is de fles met één hand vast te houden. Het aluminium blikje is bedrukt met thermochrome inkt, waardoor tijdens het koelen geleidelijk een poststempelpatroon verschijnt naarmate de temperatuur daalt. De buitenverpakking is gemaakt van kraftpapier en heeft de vorm van een koffer. De verpakking verbindt het bier met het lokale landschap en een ontspannen lokale levensstijl.

Design Challenge
To strike a balance between the cultural characteristics of Hainan and packaging design, the design team shed conventional design ideas, and integrated diverse cultural elements into the word Hainan as the basis via modern graphic design, which forms strong visual impact to reinvigorate Hainan Beer.
Research
This Hainan Beer full of Hainan style provides users with the authentic flavor of Hainan in hot summer. It is designed based on inspiration from the streets of Haikou and seabreezes in Wanning, as well as the characteristics of Hainan in a view of globalization, so that users can enjoy the distinctive lifestyle and culture as if living in Hainan.
Inspiration
Inspired by the natural scenery and relaxing lifestyle in Hainan, the packaging subtly integrates elements including sea waves, sailing boasts, coconut trees, lighthouses, seabirds, surfboards, the sun, and typical ribbons of native Lination with characteristic patterns into the word Hainan, highlighting the harmonious blending of traditional national culture and naturalecology in Hainan.
Project Duration
The project was designed and developed in Beijing in March 2022 and will be launched in China in July 2023.
Operation Flow
The slim glass bottle with relief sculpture facilitates one-hand grip for users. Thanks to the special thermochromic ink, the postmark pattern printed on the canned beer under refrigeration will appear as the temperature reduces, leading to a more interesting interaction between the packaging and the product.
