The packaging boasts flat illustrations that brilliantly exhibit the brand's quality and playfulness, complemented by vibrant colors that captivate consumer attention and deliver a powerful visual impact.

Production Technology
For the packaging design, environmentally friendly and recyclable paper and paper-pulp materials have been selected to comply with environmental standards, minimize pollution, and preserve the environment. The structure is simple, effectively reducing material usage. Most components can be flattened, resulting in a smaller volume during transportation. Non-toxic, low-VOC, eco-friendly inks are applied to ensure vibrant colors while adhering to food safety standards and safeguarding consumer health. Moreover, the packaging can be reused, as the patterns can be torn off to create bookmarks, which helps to promote environmental awareness.
Design Challenge
Initially, we wanted to design a complex and interesting structure similar to a pop-up book, combining packaging, IP, and food. But as the design progressed, we changed our design strategy, considering the categories, transportation, cost, and environmental protection of fast-moving consumer goods. We followed the concept of less is more and hoped to present creativity in the simplest and most direct form. It is presented in the form you see now through continuous attempts and optimization.
Research
We study how to cleverly integrate brands, IP, and food to reflect their brand personality and differentiation. We combine packaging structure and materials selection with concepts such as practicality, convenience, safety, and environmental protection. Through market research, network, and book research on fast food packaging, we analyze consumer preferences, refine brand characteristics, conceive design plans, and promote the execution of the entire design.
Inspiration
To embody the "Joy" in the brand name, we created a character IP named Joy, integrating this character with food throughout the packaging design, resulting in a visually playful and innocent effect. We aim for this fun and colorful design to allow consumers to take home not only food but also happiness, enabling them to enjoy a unique atmosphere while savoring their meals. This approach encourages customers to leave with delicious food, smiles on their faces, and a lasting positive impression of the brand.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2024 in Beijing and finished in October 2024 in Beijing
Operation Flow
We combine food with the IP character through flat illustrations, integrating them into the packaging structure. For example, We designed a character with a hamburger on his head. After the user opens the lid, more hamburger ingredients can be gradually seen. When the user drinks, a diving figure can be seen on the top of the lid. When the user opens the lid of the French fries, it seems that a tomato French fry man is taking off his hat to show respect. The eyes hidden in the ketchup reveal a mischievous and interesting temperament. These playful elements showcase the brand's funny quality and hint at the packaging's opening mechanism.
