About Beautiful Life Ufungaji wa Mipira ya Nondo
Beautiful Life ni muundo wa ufungaji wa mipira ya nondo inayouzwa nchini China. Ufungaji wa mipira ya nondo umedhibitiwa kwa ukali, hivyo bidhaa nyingi sokoni zinafanana. Beautiful Life inatumia nembo ya kikaligrafia, maua ya pichi na mchoro uliochorwa kwa mtindo wa uchoraji wa kale wa Kichina. Dirisha la kufungulia lina umbo la popo, ishara ya kimapokeo ya baraka. Kopo la bati limechapishwa kwa rangi nane, na sanduku la karatasi limechongwa na kupambwa kwa dhahabu. Kopo la bati linazuia harufu na linaweza kuhifadhiwa na kutumika tena. Kifuniko cha ndani kilichofichwa kinafanya chombo hicho kuwa vigumu kwa watoto kukifungua.

- Unique Properties
- The design team create a vintage-like brand.

Carving on paper
Gilding over paper - Design Challenge
- The first challenge is tight regulation by government. The team have to put "Paradichlorobenzene" and low-toxic icon on the center front which is more identifiable than the brand. The team changed the font weight to emphasize the brand. The second challenge is from the client that they think the tin can package is like a candy box and kids may eat the pills mistakenly. The team design a hidden lid beneath the top lid, which is rarely impossible for kids to open but adult can open it easily.
- Research
- The quest is to upgrade the existing package. The old version is known for its low price and the competition in its existing market is fierce. After a cross-region survey the team figure out that most consumers are price-insensitive as the product is infrequently used, and it would volatilize easily. In view of this condition, the team decide to change the position of the product from a chemical pesticide into an beneficial ornament - the team assume customers would keep the tin can in their cabinet for a long time, and can be reused. The new package helps client expand the market.
- Inspiration
- Mothballs in China are classified into low-toxic chemical, which means the packaging needs to obey several restrictive terms announced by Agricultural Department. These restrictions lead to a market that almost every brand looks alike, thus the team's first mission is to make it looks different. after analyzing the competitors, the team find that brand recognition is the fatal factor for the mothball market. The team create a calligraphic logo, and the decorating elements are taken from ancient painting.
- Project Duration
- The project started in January 2019 in Beijing and finished in April 2019 in Beijing.
- Operation Flow
- The Chinese name of Beautiful Life is "香生记", which means a lively color brings forth fragrance. As the odor of mothball may not be accepted by all the people, the team work changed the package from plastic bags into tin cans to seal it. The team also asked its client to change the perfume into more traditional and natural ones.
