In The Classic of Tea (760), Lu Yu observes the rituals of tea spreading to the masses with the emergence of Tea Booths (Chatan) and Small Teahouses (Chaliao), shifting the identity of teahouses from refined architecture frequented by nobles to become an integral hub of Chinese communities - a place where neighbours met for news, socials, entertainment, and tea.

It is with this value that flōoat curates its calendar:

- Chinese language study group (with tea) 🍵🌿 for beginners on Oct 19.

- UPCYCLED: Bookbinding workshop 🍬🪡 on Oct 26 with @kamipaperuk. Come learn bookbinding and make your unique notebook made from candy wraps! Creative zen vibes promised😌

- Quiet Hours: co-working hours in the studio; work + quiet mode on. Book your flooat pass 🎫

- Social Hours: chitchat hours in the studio; all modes welcome. Book your flooat pass 🎫

We hope flōoat becomes a second home one returns to when they’re looking for a community, a space to learn about different skills, and a moment to share thoughts with yourself and others through tea. Check Rituals+Spaces for October events and reservations.
