Designers Chow Hom and Chen Hua Yi developed a yin-yang bottle for the Chinese Origin rice wine, bringing two contrasting elements into harmony.
The two bottles are nearly identical in composition, featuring one black and one white design with alternately colored caps. When these two bottles are placed side by side, they look like twins, although there are some slight differences to the illustrations that wrap around the base of the bottles. The charming illustrations of agricultural scenes are complete with mountains, rivers and plenty of foliage. When the black and white bottles are placed together, forming the circular yin-yang shape, the image forms a perfect circle, making it possible to view the contrasting scenes together. These bottles are packaged in a box that follows through with the balanced black and white scheme.
