The Design

About Ash2o Garrafa de Água Mineral

Ash2o é um design de embalagem para água mineral premium. A garrafa contém água do Lago Celestial, nas Montanhas Tianshan, em Xinjiang, na China. A silhueta acompanha o perfil da cordilheira, e as superfícies geométricas facetadas evocam a forma dos picos. O corpo é feito de vidro e a tampa é produzida em plástico fosco. O formato triangular proporciona uma pega distinta ao abrir, segurar e utilizar a garrafa. Foi desenvolvido um sistema de molde com múltiplas gavetas para conformar as complexas superfícies anguladas. A garrafa pode ser reutilizada após o consumo da água.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: This mineral water packaging design features water sourced from Heavenly Lake (Tianchi) in Xinjiang, China, nestled within the glacier-rich Tianshan Mountains. Located in a temperature inversion layer, the lake benefits from stable, mild temperatures due to atmospheric circulation, resulting in uniquely pure and naturally mineral-rich water abundant in beneficial elements like calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and metasilicic acid.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width15 mm x Depth6 mm x Height 11mm
Tags: mineral water
Production Technology: The bottle features a glass body with a frosted plastic cap. Its multifaceted geometric design demanded extreme precision in mold engineering the asymmetrical angles required careful calculation of draft angles to prevent sticking. Ultimately, we implemented a multi-slide mold system to successfully achieve demolding for these complex surfaces.
Design Challenge: The design and manufacturing process for mountain-shaped bottle molds requires extremely high precision in blow molding and injection molding techniques. We use customized precision molds, creating multiple 3D-printed prototypes for testing. The mold's runner design and cooling system are repeatedly adjusted to ensure proper plastic flow and stable shaping during the molding process.
Research: Unique packaging helps brands stand out, allowing products to charge higher prices in the market. This approach offers reference for business breakthroughs in niche markets. The reusable bottle design aligns with sustainable development principles, encouraging consumers to recognize the value of packaging recycling and promoting environmental awareness in daily life.
Inspiration: For this premium mineral water project using Tianchi Lake's water source, we took inspiration from the Tianshan Mountains' glacial features. The bottle's silhouette mimics the mountain range's profile, with faceted geometric surfaces recreating the peaks' majestic contours. This unconventional design serves as both a direct visual reference to the water's origin and a bold shelf presence that breaks through category conventions.
Project Duration: The project started in Shenzhen in December 2024, was completed in Shenzhen in May 2025, and exhibited in Shenzhen in June 2025.
Operation Flow: Adopting a three-dimensional mountain shaped design, the opening logic of the top bottle cap conforms to daily drinking habits. At the same time, the unique grip feel of the triangular bottle body allows users to obtain a different operational perception from conventional water bottles during opening, holding, and drinking, enhancing their memory points during use.
