Production Technology
The exterior project includes a store signboard, an awning, an ivory lighting panel, a dark gray frame of the windows and the outer wall, and the door, which has the Gong cha wordmark engraved on it. The interior consists of an open space hall, counter, kitchen, sub kitchen, and furniture. The teahouse emphasizes a comfortable first impression and the attractiveness of logo design by using the point colors of Gong cha and natural wood material. Combining the main components of wooden slates, marble stone countertop, and metal accents create a modernized tea house for everyone to appreciate and savor.
Design Challenge
Design of localization brand experience for international Franchisee Teahouse - Gong cha. Being a global brand provides tangible and intangible services linking with local emotions to let customers have a new and full range of consumer experiences, which improves its localized operations and gains customer identification. However, there are different cultures, humanities, and consumer preferences for other store regions. Therefore, how to achieve both internationalization and localization is the primary challenge of commercial design.
Research
Among the wide range of food and beverage brands, how to get the recognition of consumers depends on the establishment of brand image, and tea house space is the most direct experience to give consumers the brand image. Besides, the spatial impression is the key to the success of the store operation. Therefore, in this project, Wu Sian - Gong cha Santee explored the relationship between brand elements and spatial building skills. Integrated brand image into the Teahouse space can enhance product value and the appeal of the brand and strengthen the brand image and self-identity.
Inspiration
Tea is a fountain of inspiration, transforming each day into a leisurely journey of taste. Tea, Companion, Art, Taste, and Moment meld together to form the essence of Gong cha and shape the world's culture of tea. Gong cha ponders how to best brew modest happiness and relaxation in a small cup for your day-to-day life. Gong cha ponders how to provide a space for a sip of laughter with loved ones and share the stories of tea drinking culture easily and enjoyably with many people.
Project Duration
The project started in October 2021 and the completed date is TBD. Located in Santee, California, USA.
Operation Flow
An inviting, modern layout with natural wooden color and texture brings a comfortable and sentimental mood. The teahouse uses a Gong cha specific brand signature pattern to emphasize the brand image. The use of warm colors from the counter space indirect lighting gives a harmonizing impression. Gong cha allows the customers to easily choose and understand our products using various visual materials such as the menu board and signage. The efficient working line makes work and service more accessible.
