設計方案
外盒包裝|鮮豔大器的潮流感配色

紅包設計|操控部件連結吉祥圖騰
互相交錯的賽道造型,表現品牌承先啟後的精神,交織過往輝煌與創新未來。McLaren 代表字母 “M” 隱藏在俐落的線性圖騰中,連結品牌與賽道的直接關係。搭配年節主題,設計將獨特輪胎設計與金幣造型結合,傳遞財源廣進的祝福。

春聯設計|賽道意象與錯綜線條
設計延續賽道概念,將駕駛軌跡化為筆畫,結合流暢筆觸與賽道速度感,模擬書法體寫下祝福五字:麥、吉、春、福、滿。整體融合時尚圖騰與大器年輕的字型,在斗方的空間裡展示無盡可能,體現 McLaren 新穎潮流的特性。
Design
Packaging Design|Bright and trendy Color Palette
Composed of an acrylic box and a pull-out color box, the festive red is chosen to celebrate the new year. The design team used the masking property of acrylic to create interesting interactive effects: the year and coin graphics will appear when the user pull out the box. The blessing words are interlaced with the year, hoping that the year 2023 will lead to a new road and a new goal.

Red Envelope Design|Control Element & Auspicious Totems
The interlaced racetrack interweaves the past glory and innovative future. According to this idea, the letter "M" is hidden in the neat linear totem, linking the direct relationship between the brand and the racetrack. The design combines the unique tire design with the shape of gold coins to convey the blessing of wealth.

Square Spring Couplets|Racetrack in Intricate Lines
Turn the driving trajectory into strokes, the red couplets design combine smooth lines and track speed to write five characters in calligraphy: "麥, 吉, 春, 福, 滿". The bold and youthful font shows endless possibilities in the square red paper, reflecting the characteristics of McLaren's infinite energy.
