Article source: BloomDesign “Only by planting the roots of design into the earth can we harvest its towering trees.” — Yu Ping, Chinese designer Marier in Japanese means intimacy or intimate connection between people. MarierWagashi locates its first heritage shop in Shangmeilin, Shenzhen, more precisely, the ground floor of an old building in an old community, with an air of detachment from the urban hustle.

They need to tell this story through the language of design.

Old tree outside the window interacts with huge original rock inside the shop through narrow glass curtain wall, bringing Nature back to city and immersing clients in its blessing. Enjoy a sip of Taiwan cold-brewing tea, matching with one bite of Japanese wagashi, leisurely afternoon tea time gives a special texture to life.

Through minimalistic visual language and design techniques, BloomDesign presents multi-level artistic conception of “Seeing a mountain in a rock and a forest in a tree” that is typical in Oriental context. It seems like clients are exposed in a world that exists as naturally as breathe, that lies in yet away from the bustling city…  Image Courtesy © BloomDesign  Image Courtesy © BloomDesign  Image Courtesy © BloomDesign
