Two illustrations for packaging that convey the contrasting atmospheres of specific types of tea. Blood Orange Rooibos is a warm orange living room in the late afternoon, while Lavendar Earl Gray is a moody study in the early morning

I landed on the idea of creating a box that showed different rooms in a house based off of the feelings that types of teas evoked. Through sketching, I eventually realized I could use the corner of the box to create an optical illusion with the perspective of a room.
I settled on blood orange rooibos and lavender early grey for the two types of tea and began developing different rooms based off of the flavors of the tea. For each type, I portrayed a different type of creative activity to go along with the atmosphere of the tea. I gathered inspiration from all of the spaces I've been to throughout my life, especially those of friends and loved ones.

For blood orange rooibos , I created a sunny living room in the late afternoon. I chose music as a theme for this tea, portrayed through the record collection, guitar, and record player.
For lavender earl grey, I created a moody study on an early morning, complete with plenty of books and curios. I decided to emphasize reading and writing as the theme for this cozy tea.
