the gourmet tea {colourful places & spaces}






I love the clean and colourful design for The Gourmet Tea store in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Architect Alan Chu was inspired by the brand’s 35 brightly hued tea tins to create rectangles of colour that serve as a focal point in the space. With the addition of beautiful white neon typography and vibrant hanging lamps, Alan crafted a small house into the modern, bright and airy teahouse. I would love to grab a chair this colour happy shop and think up some colourful places and space to visit in Brazil…

Oh my gosh!! I need to go here!!! Amazing. Those photos looking into the room make the tins look like really big paint chips! Inspiring! I think I’m going to have to cover all my tins of tea at home with bright coloured paper…ahhhhh….
