DESIGN NAME: Guotai Longjiu Zuncang
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Chinese Baijiu Packaging
INSPIRATION: The shape of the emperor's jade seal and the five-clawed golden dragon pattern woven using weaving techniques on the emperor's dragon robe inspired me to create.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This is a high-end product called "Dragon", produced in the famous liquor-producing area "Chishui River". The golden visual center looks like the Chishui River flowing through the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and like a dragon shuttling in the clouds. Ceramics and brocade are two great inventions of China. The ceramic bottle is shaped like an imperial seal, and brocade is used for the wine label, just like the fabric used to make the emperor's dragon robe, reflecting both the nobility and scarcity of the product.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Bottle with metal cap from top
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in Shenzhen in October 2022, it was completed in December 2023 and went on sale in China around December 18, 2023.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Packaging Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: We referenced a large number of royal dragon patterns for the redesign, striving to follow the beautiful shapes and postures of classical dragon patterns. However, rendering complex dragon patterns on woven fabrics is a very difficult challenge. The artistic value of Chinese brocade lies in how the brocade is made by converting hand-drawn lines into pixel-like dot-matrix data, which is then converted into a loom to render the original pattern as realistically as possible.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: bottle
90mm x 90mm x 215mm
Ceramic, metal, brocade
TAGS: Chinese Baijiu packaging, packaging design
RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Research type: Liquor packaging; Research goal: Promote project sales; Method: Design a new project; Data collection: Start with customer purchasing preferences; Tools used: Design software; Effect: The project started smoothly and the sales situation was very good.
CHALLENGE: The most difficult part was how to realistically render the intricate dragon pattern on the brocade fabric. This involves the field of textile technology, and our designers need to understand the manufacturing methods and processes of brocade. We need to combine design solutions with actual technology to ensure the perfect presentation of the final product as much as possible.
