The deep connection between Luliang Highland Vegetables and the values behind the Gold Medal has been crucial in gaining extensive recognition, serving as a source of inspiration for the design.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: For regional public brand identity newly designed for Luliang Highland Vegetables. The Gold Medal logo image is a key element symbolizing uniqueness and importance. The main object of the design is to accent its excellence in China highland vegetable industry, as well as its extensive cultivation area and leading stance in the market due to exceptional climatic conditions. This has earned the brand public recognition for maintaining the pristine ecology and delivering high quality vegetables.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: An image of a bird holding a vegetable in its mouth, standing in the visual focus of the logo, was inspired by a local proverb in Luliang who knows if the vegetables are good or not, only the bird knows.

The pattern conveys a respect for the purity of nature and the pursuit for unprocessed state.
