What stays fixed, and what changes

Every one of the 34 teas is photographed the same way in this shop: leaves drifting through caustic light ripples as if gently submerged. The frame keeps dreamlike suspension. What changes between teas is the tea, not the treatment — loose tea in the frame carries the difference. The set was built to work as dreamy, sensorial freshness. Nothing in these frames is a stock photograph: the tin is our own 100 g tin, printed with our own labels, and the tea inside it is the tea being sold. One visual language across a whole catalogue is harder than one striking image, and it is the part that makes a shelf look like a brand.
