The Design

About Fenvee Essence Embalaža za dišave

Fenvee Essence je oblikovana embalaža za dišave, navdihnjena z rešetkastimi vzorci tradicionalnih kitajskih oken. Embalaža ima širino 55 mm, globino 55 mm in višino 170 mm. Uporabljen je strukturiran papir, minimalistična zasnova pa omejuje potrebno količino barve in lepila. Tisk in reliefni vtis poudarjata fine detajle ter ustvarjata igro svetlobe in senc, ki se spreminja s premikanjem embalaže. Gladek mehanizem odpiranja dodatno podpira taktilno izkušnjo. Zasnova povezuje kulturno dediščino s trajnostnimi materiali.
