RESEARCH ABSTRACT: In Hangzhou, China, we immersed ourselves in extensive consumer interviews, understanding their perspectives on bottled water and listening to their consumption needs. Concurrently, we delved into the city's cultural tapestry, conducting in-depth research on iconic landmarks, historical narratives, and local legends. To ensure our packaging design stands out in the market, we meticulously studied both domestic and international water packaging trends. Finally, combining modern and international aesthetics with traditional Chinese cultural elements, we created this packaging series.
CHALLENGE: Designing large-area, vibrant, and intricately detailed labels for glass bottles through heat transfer printing is a challenging task. We personally visited multiple glass bottle factories, immersed ourselves in their workshops, and actively participated in the production of samples, continuously refining and optimizing our design to achieve a stunning effect.
