DESIGN NAME: Jinlongquan Beer
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Gift Box
INSPIRATION: The inspiration for this design comes from the starting year of the brand. The 1980s was a very interesting time. At that time, the most popular way for young people was to carry a recorder, dance and sing in bell bottoms, and be very happy. This is exactly the pleasant feeling that beer can bring to people. From the physical and spiritual aspects of the brand, it is very consistent.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Jinlongquan Beer has a history of more than 40 years in China. It has been liked by people since 1977. This gift box is designed to give back consumers' love for Jinlongquan for so many years. Therefore, it uses the most popular tape recorder model in the 1980s as the creation prototype. With this image, it creates a silent classic sound to convey the brand's position in consumers' hearts, and convey the idea that beer brings unlimited fun to people.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: This gift box uses the most popular recorder in the 1980s as the creation prototype, which will remind many people of their memories. In the current trend of retro, many young people also like this retro design, so it can cover a very wide range of consumers' ages. Emotional interaction is the interaction that can bring consumers the greatest memory point, and will bring better brand goodwill to the brand.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project will start in Wuhan, China in June 2022, be completed in Wuhan, China in July 2022, and be exhibited in Hubei, China in September 2022.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Packaging Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Although this is a gift box, in order to avoid excessive packaging, the designer only used corrugated boxes to achieve this, which is practical and environmentally friendly and saves the brand money. At the same time, taking advantage of the modeling characteristics of the tape recorder, three circular holes were opened on the basis of not damaging the integrity, so that consumers can clearly see several different types of beer products in the gift box from the outside, achieving the dual protection of brand culture and function.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Width 370mm x Depth 70mm x Height 310mm

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: When doing this design, the designer started to study the brand development process and found out several important nodes of the brand development. He used the most popular recorder in the brand's initial years as the creation prototype, which not only demonstrated the long history of the brand, but also had emotional interaction with consumers. He also used the important year of the brand on the FM number of the recorder, and used this natural way to integrate the brand into the design.
CHALLENGE: The biggest challenge of this gift box is to control the production cost, but the designer perfectly solved it through creative modeling, and the corrugated box is also very environmentally friendly. Another challenge lies in the internal fixed structure. The designer gave up the simple but not environmentally friendly foam and solved it by blocking the product through the opening of the carton, so that the whole gift box can reach the most environmentally friendly state.

This award-winning work is an innovative and creative example of packaging design that seamlessly blends unique properties, research, inspiration and challenges into a unified design that speaks to the heart of its consumers. The use of an iconic audio recorder model from the 1980s is a clever and nostalgic reference that is sure to evoke positive emotions. The clever use of corrugated boxes to minimize packaging and increase sustainability is a highly admirable achievement. This work deserves to be celebrated for its exemplary design and production methods.
