RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The Moon Palace is the palace in the moon according to Chinese mythology. Against the backdrop of the popularity of the Chinese retro style, the young generation adores these elements. The illustration showcases the designers’ imagination of the Moon Palace, by which the designers hope users can get together and reunite at the Mid-Autumn Festival. Thus, this gift box promotes the traditional culture during its selling.
CHALLENGE: The difficulty lies in how to differentiate this packaging from others. The designers select the brand-new illustration and outstanding interactive experience. When the light is on, the light beams through the paper carving graphics to show the interaction between light and shadow.
