Uzana (ဥဇန) is a ready‑to‑eat version of a time‑honored food tradition from Myanmar: fermented tea leaves combined with assorted beans and seasonings, arranged in layers for you to mix. Each box is designed to transform into the bowl you eat from, removing the need for extra containers. The product brings authentic, shareable flavor to on‑the‑go moments; you get the ritual of mixing, the depth of layered taste, and a thoughtfully designed pack that becomes your bowl.
Process
The exterior packaging is drawing inspirations from traditional Burmese lunch boxes, tiffins that were stacked. Expanding oni that concept, I want the top lid to be a visual representation of pagodas and Buddist temples, bringing that cultural apsect even more. Each box has three smaller boxes inside, which hold the actual food (3 servings). I wanted to emphasize how the package is multifunctional by using a bowl shape/design that is unique and reflective of its cultural roots.
For the name, I chose the name Uzana, which is a variant and play on word of Yuzana, meaning jasmine blossom. This felt more contemporary while still maintaining its cultural counterpart. In addition to the traditional details, I wanted the bowl aspect to be translated into my logo design.
Throughout my process, I shifted mainly in my color palette because the green/teal looked too health focus and not reflective of my actual product and the essence it gives off. I went for warmer colors like orange and yellow since it’s close to the beans and the country’s colors. However, it felt too bright, so I toned it down so it’s more tamed and muted.
