Nezha, a widely recognized figure in Chinese mythology, represents courage, wisdom, and justice. From the 1979 film Nezha Conquers the Dragon King to the 2019 hit Nezha, the character has evolved over time, yet its core spirit remains unchanged. Nezha Sparkling Water draws inspiration from this iconic figure, blending traditional cultural elements with contemporary design to create a beverage that is both distinctive and vibrant.

The cap design of the sparkling water bottle cleverly incorporates classic elements of Nezha’s head, making it instantly recognizable and full of childlike charm. The decoration on the cap is inspired by the "Three Flames of Samadhi," with lifelike flame patterns that seem to convey a surge of heat, symbolizing the unique taste and vitality of Nezha Sparkling Water. The bottle’s shape is inspired by Nezha’s physique, with smooth curves that elegantly highlight his agile and robust form. This design imparts a dynamic, energetic aesthetic, helping the product stand out in a crowded beverage market. Additionally, the packaging design varies according to the flavor, with vibrant, energetic colors on the bottle that emphasize the refreshing qualities of the drink.

Moreover, the logo design of Nezha Sparkling Water is equally thoughtful. It is based on the Chinese character for “Nezha,” with circles cleverly replacing the radicals of the character, giving the script a modern and lively appeal. The circular elements not only echo the bubbles in the sparkling water but also symbolize endless possibilities and a spirit of innovation. The logo’s typography is simple yet elegant, combining the grace of traditional calligraphy with a contemporary design sensibility. It is both easy to recognize and visually impactful, making it a beloved and distinctive symbol of the Nezha Sparkling Water brand.
