Unique Properties
The packaging box is different from the common rectangular design, allowing shoes, clothes, and accessories to be laid flat inside the box, not only saving packaging materials but also reducing logistics costs. A wide range of children's shoe sizes from 31 to 43, accommodating with a single design. Rolling clothes up not only solves the problem of wrinkles during the transportation, but also reduces the packaging, making it more environmental friendly.
Dimensions & Packaging
Width 480 mm x Depth 540 mm x Height 115 mm
Tags
Chinese elements, triangle, Environmental friendly, sportsmanship, Chinese idioms, Jump rope, limited edition
Production Technology
The packaging is an abnormal shape and uses environmentally friendly materials, especially the three corners are difficult to handle. It is also hard to ensure uniform quality of each product and control of cost and schedule.
Design Challenge
How to be more environmentally friendly is a very challeng, not only the choice of materials, but also how to design to reduce space, to fit different sizes of shoes in one design, and to reduce the packaging of clothes and accessories.

At the same time, during the production process, the processing of the corners of the triangle also increases the difficulty of manufacturing.
Research
Deeply studied traditional Chinese culture, including: idioms, traditional Chinese architecture, Chinese calligraphy, and write the theme "Jump Chinese Style" with a brush.

When studying "the carp leaping over the dragon gate", we developed an abstract symbol for the Chinese character “door" and used simple circles to represent the rapid water flow and challenges.
Inspiration
Design a limited edition packaging for the Chinese jump rope national team for their world championships, which contains shoes, clothes and accessories. Using traditional Chinese elements, such as the Chinese national flag, Calligraphy and idiom. Inspired by the Chinese legend of 'carp leaping over the dragon gate,' which has a strong connection with jump rope sports and also motivates people to overcome difficulties and achieve great success.
