============================================================================
The Peace on Earth Bottle was created by Joyn Viscom.

'Peace = lotus + bottle. Red balloons and white birds morphing from origami airplanes symbolize the message of peace. As messengers, the four children in white are sending the message of peace to people from all over the world.'

The Happiness Bottle was created by Wang Xu.

'The Haha mirror shows happiness you can see. Hahaha is the sound of someone laughing, full of happiness.'

The Uplifting Moments Bottle was created by MeWe.

'Now, we are trying to put imagination back to the aluminum bottle. With the gemstones, when the Coca-Cola logo faces you, you discover the word ‘happy.’ And the butterfly bottle symbolizes beauty and the most uplifting moment when its transformation takes place.'

The Human Collaboration Bottle was created by Milkxhake.

'Coming from all over the world yet sharing the same sky, we start everything with a loving heart, so that our world will be even more beautiful.'

The Active Optimism Bottle was created by Chen Shao-hua.

'Nothing visual can fully represent the multi-faceted meanings of happiness. But the artist turned to popular text messaging and his blog to ask to young Chinese people: What words say happiness to you? He then selected 8, 4-character words, which most represent the idea of happiness among young people, and placed the words in the mouth of the laughing Bodhisattva—a traditionally hilarious Chinese symbol.'

The Individual Perseverance Bottle was created by Jiang Hua.

'The horizontally extending pattern is actually Coca-Cola in Chinese characters. They are used to wrap around the bottle. Customers in China might be able to guess its meaning. The geometric pattern also reminds the user of the organic shape of the Coke bottle.'
