About Panpan Geschenkdoos

Panpan is een gelimiteerde geschenkdoos ontworpen om merkproducten en geselecteerde cadeaus te bevatten. De buitenvorm is geïnspireerd op oude Chinese voedseldozen, terwijl de decoratie de Chinoiserie-stijl volgt die in de 18e eeuw populair was in Europa. Bekende Chinese en Franse bezienswaardigheden zijn gecombineerd met het merkkarakter in illustraties met hete folie. De doos is gemaakt van karton, met metalen platen aan de voor- en achterkant. Tarwepatronen aan de zijkant en bamboepatronen aan de binnenkant zijn gereliëfd in goudpapier. Het klepdeksel wordt door magneten gesloten gehouden.

The illustrations on the gift box are made of hot stamping, and the patterns of wheat on the side and bamboo on the inside are made of gold paper embossing.
Design Challenge: As a gift box for China-French friendship, how to balance and choose Chinese and French elements is the first problem. The main consumers of the brand come from the sinking market, how to design a Premium Limited gift box that meets its brand positioning is the second problem. The Chinoiserie style is the answer, which combines Chinese and European elements, and the gorgeous decoration is more suitable for the brand than minimalism.
Research: This limited edition gift box celebrating the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and France combines the essence of Eastern and Western aesthetics. Inspired by classical Chinese food boxes and the prevalent Chinese style in 18th century Europe, it is made of environmentally friendly cardboard material. The ribbon lines on the box decoration are inspired by the Panpan logo, symbolizing the bond of cultural exchange. The overall design is like a precious gift and a cultural bridge, interpreting the friendship between China and France through design language.
Inspiration: The design of the appearance is inspired by ancient Chinese food boxes, and the gift box style is inspired by the Chinoiserie style that was popular in Europe in the 18th century, incorporating famous Chinese and French attractions and elements. The curved opening line is inspired by the line elements of the Panpan logo, and its shape is also like a ribbon, connecting the Chinese and French elements in the illustration.
Project Duration: The project started in May 2024 in Beijing and finished in August 2024 in Beijing.
Operation Flow: The opening lines of the gift box are curved, dividing the illustration into two parts to show more details. The gift box opens with a flip lid and is fixed with magnets.
