RESEARCH ABSTRACT: This design is a brand new case. The customer said that seasoning sauce can be seen everywhere in China. Although it is necessary for every family, it is very optional. As a local characteristic product, this case is difficult to stand out from many similar products. So design team decided to make some changes: superimpose the local history and culture and natural scenery in layers to show the progressive family ties , and re create a package connecting the soul and family around the concept of "common but essential".
CHALLENGE: 1. The biggest difficulty of this gift packaging lies in the layered hollowed out carving paper. It also needs to be tightly stitched into a perfect historical and cultural pattern, and has a perspective effect of near reality and far emptiness. The team always felt that it could not meet the expectations in the test stage.
2. Finally, the problem is solved by using Staggered printing.
