RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
Chinese spirit has up to 70% of market share in Chinese alcohol market. But as the traditional Chinese spirit has a strong or even sauce-like smell and the package is old-fashioned, the young consumers is shifting to other choices rather than Chinese spirit. Kaishan is a revolutionary spirit that combine the brewing method of Gin with traditional spirit. Thus the taste is more clear and sharp. We use glass to express the clean taste, different from most spirit brand in China which usually use in porcelain. But we used porcelain blue instead of the material. And Quite surprisingly, the mountain is transparent, but reflecting the blue from shoulder, also the makes the shadow with a beam of blue. The shadow part is to be honestly beyond our expectation. The box is also an high-light of the design as the the bottle will appear as a Blue Chinese lanttern when opened from center. We do many research to make a abstract pattern deprived from Tonghuang Cave painting from thousand years ago. Also the inverted-trapezoid wood stopper originted from the alcohol vases from Tang dynasty(picture uploaded in additional file)

CHALLENGE:
The hardest part of the Chinese spirit design is that usually a bottle contains 500ml volume(less than whisky or vodka) but the Chinese spirit consumer mania with the big size and expanded visual effect of the package. (A ridiculous rule saying in the spirit sales market is that "the bigger the box, the better it sells") So we thicken the bottom of the bottle, and place the bottle in a big box in a good reason. Chinese character is also a hard part. Not similar with Japanese character which has katakana, hiragana or directly english alphabet to choose from, We have only uneven characters, and strict law of using the character "rightly". Many Chinese design lost their modernity by bad calligraphy using or over-using of crafts. This time we deal with the four character into two part and left many whitespace to generate mythical atmosphere. Asymmetry label is also challenge point, we adjust many time about the length and height of label and finally set it in 55% of the perimeter.
