Features of IN ANGER
■ A Room Spray Born from "Anger"
IN ANGER was conceived in a stuffy conference room after a heated meeting.
There's no villain.
Opening a window can clear the air.
Yet, the heavy feelings that linger in the space don't disappear immediately.
Firmly grip the room spray,
And spray it as if to pierce the air.
The exhilaration of transforming anger into fragrance that arises at that moment is the origin of IN ANGER.
■ Spicy and Fresh: An Aroma That Stimulates the Space
Firmly grip IN ANGER. A small action to confront the air.
Use it as a single spray during work breaks, transitions, or as an alternative to deep breathing, stretching, or coffee breaks. The instantly spreading spicy and fresh aroma invigorates heavy air and stimulates the stagnation that dominated the atmosphere.
By making the scent of spices the main focus, it evokes a sharp sense of anger. The gentle sweetness of fruits represents a calming state of mind. The fragrance itself was designed to be a refreshing, not overly sweet scent that blends well into workplaces and shared spaces.
■ Packaging Design That Changes the Room's Expression
"Anger," the origin of IN ANGER, is expressed as energy for moving towards the next action.
The strong color scheme and dynamic, rough graphics visualize the feeling of a switch being flipped in stagnant air. The scent spreads instantly, and the impression of heavy air is transformed.
This transformation is captured as a graphic on the packaging.
The graphic patterns for each of the three flavors are created by photographing material textures and abstracting their qualities.
By incorporating the roughness and fluctuations of materials, the design achieves a vibrant color scheme that doesn't overwhelm the space, allowing it to integrate into interior decor.
When placed in a conference room, on a desk, a shelf, or store fixtures, IN ANGER is intended to be an object that slightly alters the impression of the space, rather than just a household item.
