Splash
Product Design / Package Design
Design Competition
2011
This concept design called Splash, was developed within the 4711 Design Competition in 2011. The main purpose of this concept was to convey the fragrance sensations through the shape and the materials used in this premium bottle. Water is a recurring element in perfumes' communication but rarely it’s applied to the packaging itself. Therefore this was the start up to this project.

Concept and Inspiration


Associating the bottle’s shape with the colour of the fragrance made it possible to convey the sensation of freshness and weightlessness.

All details were seriously thinked and there is one purpose for each one. This brand plate is the final touch to this package. The main reason for it is of course brand placement but the consumer can use it as a prop like a keychain for example.
