Yoozoo’s design works to create a unique sensory experience for a shop that sells boba tea, through using polycarbonate as the main light diffuser. The customer’s experience starts as soon as they order at the entrance as it begins to unfold in the space. The polycarbonate walls -translucent in nature- play games with natural and artificial light.
