The brief was to create a chain of tea shops opened in the areas such as Smithfields, West End & The City. I have created the concept of a cocktail tea bar, which would give tea a new dimension.


Arabesque Typeface

Typeface was designed based on random object (Moroccan tajine). I developed the alphabet based on Kufic calligraphic script. Materials: clay, gems, sand.

typeface was inspired by Kufic, the oldest calligraphic form of the various Arabic scripts. Its name is derived from the city of Kufa in Iraq, although it was know in Mesopotamia at least a hundred years before its foundation.
