Core Concept | Conveying the Warmth of Hakka Culture Through Scented Candlelight
This design uses fragrance and candlelight as a medium to convey the warmth of Hakka culture. The name "Kè Bāo" is derived from the words Hakka and Warmth. The project incorporates four representative elements of Hakka culture—Fucai (fermented mustard greens), Xindingban (rice cake for newborn celebrations), Leicha (pounded tea), and Yunhuolong (Hakka fire dragon dance)—translating them into four scented candle products.
Each candle is designed with scent, ritualistic experience, and cultural storytelling, allowing users to immerse themselves in Hakka traditions. Every set includes a candle holder (sculpture), fragrance, and an informational card detailing the cultural background and production process.
Targeting individuals who appreciate cultural aesthetics, value heritage, and seek deeper connections with local traditions, this design aims to foster a renewed and meaningful bond with Hakka culture through cultural translation and innovative experiencesin daily life.
