INSPIRATION: Iris is a special species of flower with 3 petals, 3 calyxes and 3 stigmatic lips.Seeing the botanical trait of iris, we can tell that its figure is unique and highly recognizable. We epitomize the shape of iris and illustrate it into a piled pattern of 3 layers, each with 3 petals, which conveys a sense of layering and vintage, and also symbolizes a spirit of the enterprise.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The glass bottle of minimalist style is matched with a light golden cap of iris. The flower is shining and sparkling in the middle of the crystal acrylic cylinder. Iris is a spiritual symbol of the enterprise, because of which we try to keep the figure concrete so as to maximize the value of the brand. We create the figure inside the cap based on the three petals, calyxes, and stigmatic lips in each flower, and pile it up into a tridimensional model in a decussate way.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: We specially design the cap into a tridimensional cylinder with an acrylic crystal mould of 3 beautiful irises inside to help the product stand out form others. And the paper of the box is a kind of imported paper with the a luxury feeling, where we use the technology of hot stamping to make the iris look vivid and lively on the white paper. The match of the exquisite cap and elegant box make the product stylish and unique.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: This design is one of our upgraded cases. The precious package is aging and unrecognizable amongst the market to consumers. And it made you feel cheap as the package is rough and not fine enough. We also found that most brands are upgraded simply by changing their logos and creating new patterns when facing these problems, and thus failed to make use of the elements of the product itself. So we proposed to the client to utilize fully of iris to build up its own brand image.
CHALLENGE: The acrylic iris shape inside the crystal cap is difficult to realize as we want it reflect light from every angle and looks shiny all the time. But after many tests and negotiations with the factory, we finally make it work with the technique of injection-moulding. Another challenge is that the effect of the paper printed with the technique of hot pressing was not ideal so we had to do numerous tests.
