Tea brand Heytea is continuing to expand throughout China, and most recently inaugurated its first HeyTea Lab in Guangzhou. At nearly 3,800 square feet, the new café space is housed within luxury mall Parc Central and features a clean modernist identity crafted by Chinese design studio Leaping Creative.
Taking cues from local culture and leisurely lifestyles, the store executes a teahouse theme, which manifests in the form of a cozy and intimate atmosphere that invites customers to linger. White hues and wood span the interior, with a double-height glass curtain wall to infuse daylight. Moreover, two types of bespoke handmade bricks adorn the walls in homage to traditional Cantonese architecture. Beyond the beverage bar on the first floor, an upper level hosts the Tea Geek Lab and the dessert counter as well.
