RESEARCH ABSTRACT: In order to create a gift box that can represent the characteristics of cherry blossoms in Wuhan, the designer went to several Cherry Blossom sites in Wuhan to experience and find the real emotional needs of people. The beauty of cherry blossoms is very short-lived, and people hope to keep it forever. Using this idea, the designer applies the beauty of "cherry blossoms falling from Jinghu" to the whole product design, At the same time, Wuhan's characteristic buildings and characters of the 1990s are added to push the city's characteristics and emotional expression to a new height.
CHALLENGE: The biggest difficulty of this packaging lies in the structure of the inner box. How to fold a box into a cherry blossom without glue and nails, and open it is also a cherry blossom. The designer needs to optimize the structure to make the box fold more smoothly to improve the production efficiency. After dozens of experiments, the best effect is finally achieved.
