Fly By Jing

sichuan street poster, turned up loud

Fly By Jing packs Sichuan pantry food like a loud gig poster. Each pack is flooded with one saturated colour broken up by fine vertical pinstripes, then covered in bright yellow (#f2e22e) condensed capitals that arc, curve and wrap around a central food photo or a saw-tooth burst badge. Jars get a wide wrap label over the visible red chili crisp with a black screw cap, noodles use pillow pouches with a cut-out bowl of noodles lifted on chopsticks, and spices and hot pot base sit in black pouches with neon type. The flavour colour changes while the yellow ink, curved product name and crowded layout stay fixed.

Typography

Suggested visual alternatives, not confirmed brand typefaces. Any scale below is an illustrative estimate.

The condensed caps wordmark sits high and centred; the product name is the most energetic element, set on a curve that hugs the food photo or badge. Small paired claims sit either side of the wordmark, a long origin story runs in tiny caps around the edges, and on jars an italic display serif adds a 'Heritage Crafted' line and a script slogan curls up a side panel.

Front Panel

Schematic reading order. The diagram’s zone heights do not represent measured artwork proportions.

Full-bleed colour field with fine vertical pinstripes; on jars a wide wrap band covers the middle and leaves chili crisp visible at top and bottom, on pouches the colour fills the whole front.

Range System

Colour coding with a fixed ink: each flavour or product owns one saturated pinstriped ground, while Chili Yellow type, curved names and badge structure repeat everywhere.

  • Original chili crisp = red label
  • Mild = blue label
  • Xtra Crunchy = teal label
  • Chili Crisp Noodles = red pouch
  • Classic Soy = teal pouch
  • Creamy Sesame = orange pouch
  • Erjingtiao Chilis = purple pouch
  • Hot Pot = black pouch with magenta and teal type
  • Tribute Peppers = black with green pinstripes

Back of Pack & Shelf

The pinstriped colour and yellow type continue round the back: a short founder note and cooking ideas in condensed caps, then nutrition, ingredients and barcode in a yellow-keylined block.

  • Founder note and origin of the chilies in condensed capitals
  • Cooking steps or serving ideas (noodles, eggs, dumplings)
  • Nutrition facts panel on a solid box
  • Ingredients list with allergens
  • Spice-level scale, barcode and recycling note

On shelf

In a row the packs read as a run of saturated pinstriped blocks with the same yellow type on every one, so the brand billboards as yellow-on-colour while each flavour holds its own hue.

Imagery

Cut-out, high-saturation food photography of noodles lifted on chopsticks above a white bowl, plus small dried-chilli and garlic spot photos; on jars the product inside acts as its own image. Black pouches swap photography for neon line drawings of a hot pot, chillies and lightning bolts.

Guidelines

Do

  • Flood the pack with one saturated colour and overlay fine vertical pinstripes a shade darker.
  • Set nearly all text in one bright yellow ink (#f2e22e).
  • Curve the product name along an arc around the central photo or badge.
  • Use condensed heavy Display caps for wordmark and names, about 70% of pack width for the wordmark.
  • Add a saw-tooth burst badge for the variant or a short claim.
  • Fill the edges with small running copy so the pack feels crowded and energetic.
  • On jars, keep a band of the product visible above and below a label about 60% of jar height.
  • Give black specialty packs neon line art instead of photography.

Don't

  • Don't leave large empty areas or use a minimal layout.
  • Don't use muted, pastel or earthy colours.
  • Don't set text in straight lines only; at least the product name should curve.
  • Don't introduce a second main ink colour for type on coloured packs.
  • Don't use kraft paper or natural textures.
  • Don't use clichéd red-and-gold Chinese ornament borders.
