Muji × Patagonia – Concept Water Bottle Design
A speculative collaboration project imagining a premium reusable water bottle designed by Muji and Patagonia. The goal was to merge Muji’s minimalist aesthetic with Patagonia’s rugged outdoor spirit through form, material choice, and brand integration.
Brand Harmony
Balancing two very different brand languages taught me how subtle details (materials, finishes, logo placement) can unify aesthetics without either identity overpowering the other.
Function vs. Form
Exploring the lid system highlighted how important usability cues are in product design — ensuring the form communicates its function clearly.
Story Of Materials
Integrating elements like muted outdoor colors and natural textures reinforced the product’s narrative, showing me how small design decisions can carry big storytelling weight.
