The Design

About The Meaninghall Tea Teförpackning

Meaninghall Tea är en förpackningsdesign för det gröna teet Biluochun. Biluochun är ett grönt te som produceras i Luxiang, en liten stad vid Taisjön i Suzhou, Kina. Förpackningen är tillverkad av ett speciellt konstpapper med en fläckig textur som påminner om de gamla murarna i stadskärnan. Enkla linjegrafiker förenar symbolerna för berget, sjön och hallen till en enda landskapsbild. Varmpräglingsteknik används för att uttrycka teets naturliga karaktär. Detaljerade illustrationer undviks, så att den lokala kulturen presenteras på ett lugnt och samtida sätt.

Production Technology: We use special art paper with hot stamping technology to express the characteristics of Biluochun tea. The natural texture of the paper reflects the natural flavor of Biluochun tea.
Design Challenge: Throughout the design process of the package, we have been pursuing a natural design, pursuing packaging that best reflects the characteristics of Biluochun tea. Gorgeous illustrations were not used in the entire design, instead simple lines were used to outline the geographical location and tea-producing environment of the Meaninghall brand.
Research: Throughout the packaging design, we have always emphasized that nature is the essence of the product. Don't use too many design techniques or gorgeous illustration methods, only use the simplest design language to show the attributes of the product.
Inspiration: The Meaninghall is a local brand which is focus on selling agricultural products in high quality. It’s based in a small town of Suzhou which is called Luxiang. With a centuries-old history, and great natural environment, it has a famous green tea which is in the top list of Chinese tea- Biluochun. It’s also rich of typical fruits which belong to South of Yangzi river.
The town is far away from city and in the side of the east of Tai lake, the biological products need a way for promotion. So we hope use graphics and the special materials to create a brand with emotion of traditional cultures. It will deliver a lifestyle to someone of naturalism and who are high quality life hunters.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2019 in Suzhou, China and finished in December 2019.
Operation Flow: This package uses artistic paper with excellent feel and hot stamping technology, which directly expresses the characteristics of Biluochun tea: nature and fragrance.
