About Wuliang Image Ambalaža za alkoholna pića

Wuliang Image je dizajn ambalaže za alkoholno piće kreiran za kineski brend Baijiu. Oblik boce inspirisan je Mesečevom bocom iz dinastije Ming, a okruglo telo sugeriše pun mesec i ideju ponovnog okupljanja. Zakrivljene linije i pruge u obliku vodenih talasa obavijaju bocu poput svile. Stakleno telo je peskareno i nosi reljefni logo u boji ružičastog zlata, dok vrh boce koristi proces mat metalnog galvanizovanja. Kutija je izrađena od mat zlatnog akrila sa reljefnim metalom i vrućim utiskivanjem folije. Providna donja tekstura omogućava stabilan i udoban hvat.
