Alan Chu Architect, Gourmet Tea
Une boutique de thé conçue comme une astucieuse boîte : l’architecte brésilien Alan Chu a réalisé, pour la chaîne Gourmet Tea, à Sao Paulo, un mini-magasin (25m2) qui s’ouvre et se déploie en un espace de vente fonctionnel.
A tea shop that looks like a colorful box: imagined by Brazilian architect Alan Chu, the Gourmet Tea mini-shop in Sao Paulo playfully unfolds into a fully functional 25m2 space.
L’architecte Alan Chu a dessiné la façade en s’inspirant des emballages des quelque 35 variétés de thés bio de la marque Gourmet Tea. Le résultat évoque un joyeux collage de surfaces planes – en apparence. Des portes et vantaux s’ouvrent pour dévoiler le sigle de la marque, une cuisine, une vitrine, un comptoir, et nombre d’étagères et placards.
Architect Alan Chu designed the façade after the packaging line of Gourmet Tea 35 organic blends, resulting in a collage seemingly flat blocks of color. Doors and hatches open to reveal signage, a kitchen, a display case, a counter surface, and many cupboards & shelving units.
