About Bamboo Slips Эчемлек

Кытай культурасын һәм Канг-Шан эчемлеген дистилляцияләү процессын документлаштыруда кулланылган борыңгы бамбук слайдлары белән рухландырылган Кытай эчемлек шешәсе дизайны ачылды. Кара тышкы чисталык һәм тирәнлектән аерылып тора, ә бамбук тайгакларына язылган Кытай шигыре нәфислек өсти. Кулланылган барлык материаллар тотрыклы һәм кабат кулланыла, эчемлек сәнәгатендә эшкәртү дилеммасына чишелеш тәкъдим итә. Бу дизайн каллиграфия, бамбук слайдлары һәм Азия җәмгыятенең үзәгендә уку һәм эчү культураларын торгызу өчен катлаулы формадагы шешәне берләштерә.

Design Challenge: This is the first Chinese liquor to use a non-label design. All the materials of the design are sustainable and reusable, which solves the recycling dilemma common to the liquor industry. The creative challenge in this design is using bamboo slips wrapped around a delicately created Chinese liquor bottle to blend culture, zen, and sustainability together.
Research: This design is based on two motifs: the bamboo slips were used by ancestors to document and spread Chinese musical and ritual culture in a paper-lacking era. Second, originated from a small town Cang-Shan, the liquor requires years to distill, echoing the ancient philosophy that rewards come with patience.
Inspiration: This design centers around Zen, using black as the main product color to emphasize purity and profoundness. The package uses bamboo slips as material. Opening the liquor package is like opening a bamboo slip in ancient China. Inside the package is a Chinese poem, The Decree of Wine, which is carved on bamboo slips. The design blends the cultural reading experience with the purity and excellence of the liquor together, uncovering the rich story which blossoms at every sip of the liquor.
Project Duration: The project started in August 2022 in Paris and finished in November 2022 in Shanghai.
