Project Brief

From a young age, I have always been an avid reader with an affinity for various types of novels, particularly historical and light novels. However, there is one genre that has continuously captured my imagination - stories about immortal heroes. What sets these novels apart is the incorporation of an intriguing element - the bottle.

Project Innovation/Need

While the bottle itself may seem unremarkable at first glance, it adds a sense of enigma and thrill to the story. The bottle could be empty, or it could be filled with treasure that has the power to transform a person's life. This unique element of the immortal hero culture serves as a double surprise, keeping readers engaged and eager to discover what lies ahead.

Design Challenge

In this particular design project, the key elements that have significantly influenced me are the bottle and the flame depicted on it. The bottle, in essence, represents the realm of the unknown, and the flame on it symbolizes the feeling of anticipation that one might experience before opening it. In the world of immortal hero culture, opening a bottle can trigger an array of visions, such as the emergence of a radiant golden light or a burst of fire. It was this very concept that inspired me to incorporate the flame into my design.

Sustainability

The sustainability of the bottle is rooted in its ability to serve multiple purposes. Not only can it function as a practical container, but it also possesses the potential to serve as a symbol of prestige and accomplishment, such as a trophy. Additionally, its visually pleasing design makes it an attractive embellishment to any setting.

In my pursuit of upholding environmental preservation and eco-friendliness, I have delved into exploring different bottle materials, with stainless steel, glass, and aluminum topping the list. Stainless steel is an excellent choice due to its exceptional durability and convenience. It can withstand hot liquids, making it ideal for use with hot beverages, and is often dishwasher safe, allowing for easy cleaning. Additionally, it is lightweight and comes in various sizes and shapes, making it suitable for different purposes. Moreover, it is 100% recyclable, making it an eco-friendly option. Glass also presents a safe and practical choice for office or home use, with its transparency and ease of cleaning. Lastly, aluminum is a lightweight and sturdy material commonly used for bottle manufacturing, thanks to its shatter-resistant and long-lasting properties. These choices offer a range of options, each with unique benefits that cater to different preferences and needs.
