DESIGN NAME: Hao Prawns
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Seasoning Packaging
INSPIRATION: This is a seasoning for stir frying crayfish. Crayfish is a favorite food among people. The designer has observed that people enjoy playing poker after eating crayfish, and the people on the cards are very familiar elements. The designer combines crayfish and poker together, making people feel familiar and friendly at first glance, and can also see the product properties at a glance.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This is a series of crayfish seasoning products. Most similar products in supermarkets are mainly in red. Designers use white bags to make people's first impression of this product healthier. At the same time, they have designed an IP image. Through the combination of familiar playing cards and crayfish, people can quickly develop a sense of familiarity and understand the product properties at a glance. This combination makes the product more memorable.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: On most shelves with red products, white is very easy to see, and designers use familiar poker characters and crayfish patterns that are easy to understand at a glance. At the same time, designing logo English characters in the form of Chinese pinyin annotations helps people correctly read the first rare Chinese character in the product name, which helps promote the brand. At the same time, this pinyin annotation "HAO" adds tone, becoming an auxiliary graphic for the brand.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in Wuhan, China in July 2023 and was completed in Wuhan, China in August 2023. It is expected to be sold in Hubei, China in March 2024.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: These series of products are mostly purchased by consumers in supermarkets, so designers went to many supermarkets and looked at the shelves of the same type of products. They conducted research from different perspectives, and found that in order to break through, the first thing is to have a sense of jumping in color, making it easier for people to find. In addition, it is necessary to have elements that are familiar to people but different from other brands, in order to make consumers remember.
CHALLENGE: This is a commonly used seasoning in people's daily lives, and the biggest challenge in design is not to use the designer's perspective, but to use the consumer's perspective, starting from health, differentiation, and easy to find second time purchases. So designers need to constantly play the role of consumers and ponder the psychological state of consumption.
