Xiaomi Watch

Mi Watch Li Bai is the packaging designed for a smart watch. The box is made of paper and holds a paper pulp tray, so no plastic is used. A three-dimensional hologram is applied to the dial area of the package. Water ripples appear to flow when the box is viewed from different angles. Embossed printing and a special ink reproduce the look and texture of the dial and the strap. The watch rests on a raised part of the tray instead of a recess, so the watch appears to float. The package measures 295 by 79 by 49 millimeters.

The design aims to put the features of 3,14 wine series in the spotlight instead of hiding them among pictures or graphics. Following a minimalistic and simple approach, the label shows only the real characteristics of these natural wines as they can be observed in the Oenologist's notebook.
