Unique Properties
This innovative system visualizes tea cultivation through biological phylogenetic trees, mapping six major tea categories with terroir coordinates, craft evolution timelines, and flavor matrices. The archival case uses washable kraft paper for extended utility, resonating with academic aesthetics in study environments. Each inner capsule details geo-coordinates, tree age, and processing parameters, synchronized with a traceable quality DB to empower scientific tea selection for Menhao Tea.
Dimensions & Packaging
Each box contains 66 pre-measured sachets (3.6g/sachet) scientifically calibrated for dedicated teapots, achieving ideal infusion strength through single brew optimization for Menhao Tea.

Production Technology
The closure system with cotton cord reinforcement and washable kraft paper enables sustainable reuse cycles. Bronze gold hot foil stamping creates tea-branch motifs as visual anchors, complemented by silver foil parameter indicators and tactile sticker overlays that enhance visual hierarchy - establishing an archival-grade gift system balancing academic rigor and modern aesthetics for Menhao Tea.
Design Challenge
By integrating archival design elements and heritage materials, this system transforms tea selection from sensory intuition to data-driven decisions, shifting Menghao Tea culture from ambiguous traditions to measurable quality benchmarks.
Research
The research aims to establish a scientific decision-making model for tea consumption through dual approaches: visual semiotic translation and material lifecycle testing . By quantifying intangible heritage techniques into measurable craft parameters, this initiative demystifies tea culture while innovating an archival paradigm for consumer goods.
Inspiration
Inspired by 19th-century botanical archives, this system decodes tea evaluation through scientific visual metrics. Chromatic scales, quantified flavor indicators , and origin traceability codes replace ambiguous descriptors like "mellow sweetness", constructing a verifiable decision-making framework for Menhao Tea selection.
Project Duration
The project was launched in Shenzhen, China in November 2024 and fully implemented by January 2025.
Operation Flow
The archival cord-sealed closure system transforms each unboxing into tactile document retrieval ritual. This material narrative bridges historical tea research with contemporary consumption scenarios, creating sensorial archive access points for Menhao Tea.
