Michael Tower Architecture
Kettl Tea partnered with Michael Tower Architecture to create Sen Mon Ten, a Greenpoint cafe devoted entirely to matcha and its ceremonial qualities.
The design features two interconnected spaces: a bright, tactile public café with smooth concrete, plaster and stone surfaces, balancing refinement with imperfection.
The second, more intimate private tasting room is centred beneath a glowing suspended wood light feature and a ceremonial matcha mill display.
Together, the spaces create an immersive journey that reflects both the social and meditative aspects of matcha culture.
