The design of Tiantai Longhua Hui draws inspiration from the brand’s historical background and its unique location near Shanghai's Longhua Temple. The designer took cues from Thai Buddhist culture, particularly focusing on the folds of monks' robes. This detail not only continues the design elements from the brand’s first store, which opened in a colonial house on Dongping Road in 1999, but also pays homage to its 20-year legacy.
At the entrance, a large open area features rhythmic design elements, creating a sense of depth and mystery. Inside, the color palette transitions from soft yellow to deep green, echoing the surrounding greenery and symbolizing the changing hues of Bodhi leaves through different growth stages.
The design incorporates the Buddhist philosophy of "one flower, one world; one leaf, one Bodhi," emphasizing the interconnectedness of all things. A Bodhi leaf art installation is placed in the center of the guest seating area, set against an illuminated light membrane on the ceiling, symbolizing the vitality of life in the morning light and conveying the idea of harmonious coexistence.
