Focus: A Modern Twist on Traditional Tea Sets

Integrating Modernity and Tradition

The inspiration for the Focus tea set comes from the lens of a camera, a common element in modern life. By incorporating the camera lens as the main design element, the tea set exudes a contemporary aesthetic. The combination of an industrial camera lens and traditional Chinese ceramics creates a striking contrast between modernity and tradition.

What sets the Focus tea set apart from traditional tea sets is its innovative design. Divided into two parts - a single pot and a single cup - the tea set is integrated to facilitate easy carrying and provide a convenient tea experience anytime, anywhere. The upper and lower parts of the tea service feature a raised appearance structure inspired by the lens, adding a touch of brightness and uniqueness.

Practicality is also a key feature of the Focus tea set. The tea cup is designed with a screw thread and double-layer structure to prevent scratching and scalding, ensuring a safe and enjoyable tea-drinking experience. The distinctive spout allows for a smooth water flow, while the geometric texture and anti-scalding design make it comfortable to hold with one hand.

Made from Chinese traditional porcelain clay, the Focus tea set is crafted using ceramic firing technology. The combination of a bright glaze and a frosted outer glaze adds to its visual appeal. The dimensions of the tea set are 89mm×85mm×90mm for the pot and 80mm×80mm×35mm for the cup.

The Focus tea set was designed by Ranyi Luo and developed in Guangzhou, China. The project started in September 2019, with extensive research into traditional Chinese tea culture and the desire to create a tea set that combines modern aesthetics with functionality. The result is a tea set that not only enhances the tea-drinking experience but also adds a touch of fashion and modernity to any occasion.

The Focus tea set has received recognition for its innovative design. It was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Bakeware, Tableware, Drinkware, and Cookware Design category in 2020. This prestigious award acknowledges designs that demonstrate creativity, resourcefulness, and a commitment to improving quality of life.

With its unique blend of modernity and tradition, the Focus tea set is a testament to the endless possibilities of design. Whether you're a tea enthusiast or simply appreciate beautiful and functional objects, this tea set is sure to captivate and enhance your tea-drinking experience.
