BEFORE BREAKFAST is a design studio in London that creates handmade stationery.
With a sustainability concept, we create paper products using environmentally friendly materials such as recycled paper and soy ink, as well as RISOGRAPH and traditional bookbinding machines.
It features modern and playful designs by NICKI SHEN from Taiwan.
This time, we collaborated with TAG STATIONERY to create a mini ink set and a mini sketch pad.
We, who are based in Kyoto, and these London-based people explored common ground and discovered that it was tea. The daily activities of each of us enjoying tea are surely rooted in the same feelings.
With "tea" as the theme, each culture is expressed using five different colors of ink.

FROM KYOTO TO LONDON

Everyday Tea In Colour.
Everyday tea seen through colors.

From Kyoto to London, the distance is 9470km. The love of tea is what brings these two places together. Tea comes in many forms and is enjoyed in a number of different ways. This is also reflected in their understated yet distinct color palette.

The distance from Kyoto to London is 9,470 km. These far-flung places are connected by a love of tea. Different cultures and regions reflect different ways of enjoying tea, and subtle yet distinct colors, even though they use the same tea leaves.

Sometimes tea stains are accidentally made by their cups, and leave a mark on the table. They are very much a subtle feature, and a part of our everyday lives.

When I occasionally look closely at the tea stains left on the table by the cup, they seem like "signs of our daily lives" as we live in each of these places.
