Valentine's Day Exclusive: Limited Edition His & Hers Fragrances
Individual project from start to finish in a time span of one week. Research, ideation, CAD, and renderings—all done by me.
I started off with research to understand the franchise's design language, focusing on four key words: bold, harmonious, elegant, and angular. I also visited the store to get a proper feel of their products before beginning my process.
Here I began with 2D front-profile sketches featuring angular details and small hearts at the corners. Then I shifted focus inward, ultimately moving forward with a design that preserves the outer profile but incorporates a heart-shaped inner cavity.
This bottle will be produced using embedded cavity blow molding, as shown in this sketch. The mold features an external rectangular form with an internal heart cavity, creating a continuous glass piece with a distinct inner and outer shape.
My perfume bottle features a monochromatic design, subtly highlighting the heart shape. Due to the inner shape as the perfume starts to reduce overtime, the liquid naturally pools in the bottom corner, allowing the dip tube to reach the last drop without needing to tilt the bottle.
Valentine's Day Exclusive: Limited Edition Candle
Here I start ideating for my candle design, intending to stick with square forms. After exploring different proportions, I chose to move forward with an oversized lid that also serves as an elegant base.
The lid adds a luxurious weight to the unit and doubles as a candle base, saving surface space during use.
