Three years after making its Hong Kong debut, Starbucks’ Teavana brand is opening two new outlets this week.

A Teavana Bar opens today inside Starbucks’ revamped store at APM in Kwun Tong, the brand’s first bar in Kowloon.

The Kwun Tong bar features an open design allowing customers to watch their beverages being made by employees.

The Teavana Bar is lined with white 3D tiles and copper accents that trace the outline of hibiscus flowers, coffee and tea leaves and botanicals, shining through an arched opening in a terracotta-toned facade.

Meanwhile, Hong Kong’s first Teavana Kiosk opens at Starbucks’ ISquare outlet tomorrow (July 25). The new retail model offers a grab-and-go service. Designed with a grey terrazzo bar adorned with rose gold accent, set against a pink wall, the decor is aimed at shifting customers “out of work mode” even if only for a quick break.
