ZENS Tea House regards tea drinking as a journey and seeks to transform and extend this journey within its premises. The designer aims to weaken the constraints of architectural forms in a limited space and direct people’s attention towards the scenes we provide. Visitors are encouraged to interact with their surroundings and fully engage in each moment.



Through dramatic transitions and the interplay between two-dimensional and three-dimensional scenes, ZENS Tea House evokes a sense of alternating spatial experiences between reality and surrealism. This stimulates people’s emotions and moods, creating unique memories.



In this space, the act of tea drinking transcends mere beverage consumption and becomes a catalyst for self, time, and nature connection. The ambiance, aromas, and rituals associated with tea create a symphony of sensations, heightening the overall experience.



Ultimately, ZENS Tea House aims to leave a lasting impression on its guests, not only through its visually captivating design but also through the emotions and memories it evokes. It strives to provide a unique and vibrant journey that allows individuals to establish deeper and more meaningful connections with themselves and the world around them.
