Rainbows & Tea

Did you see Jillian's post yesterday about Color Swatches? It reminds me so much of the Brazilian store and tea room the gourmet tea

The company's 35 tea flavors are all packaged in beautifully designed color-coded containers reminiscent of color swatches. 



So, it was only natural that the rainbow-colored packaging inspired the restaurant's decor. 




I love the simplicity of this design, and how the color-swatch counter stands out against the white and wood background. The painted brick adds the perfect amount of texture to this space, and the pendant lights are a vibrant accent. What a perfect backdrop for this colorful product!


I can't resist their logo, either. A typographic logo in lights? Perfection. 

In yesterday's post, Jillian mentioned how a rainbow of colors is really inspiring. I couldn't agree more! And I think the gourmet tea is an ideal case study.
